I am about to be employed by a company in Ireland. I presume I would be getting a European Union Work Permit? Which other countries is the work permit good for (a) employment or (b) travel?
What I mean to ask is, can I also work in some other countries with that work permit, or its only for Ireland? Which other countres can I visit (just for leisure) without requiring a Visa?

A work permit is good for employment in that country alone. So if you have work permit for Ireland, you will be able to work only in Ireland. I think you are confusing between a visa/residence permit and a work permit which are both different. Once you have a work permit you will get a residence permit (normally if the nature of your work is more than three months). There is a Schengen visa regime which is prevalent in most of Europe. This entitles you to travel within 23 ( i think) countries of Europe if you have the visa/residence permit of one country. Also, Switzerland allows visa free travel if you have residence permit of any Schengen country although it is not a Schengen country by itself. However, unfortunately, this does not apply to Ireland and the UK which are part of the EU but have not signed the Schengen protocol. So if you have an Irish residence permit, to travel to anywhere else in Europe; you will have to apply for a Schengen visa.

You can visit Dubai , Mauritius and Singapore where they are granting visa for a week only on arrival with certain fees in Dollars.Your work permit is valid for that country only.Further for your info Ireland is not the member of European Union.Please check this as referendum had gone against merger.

I dont recognize of any reason you couldnt visit. it will be like a visit quite than to stay. there is no border controls between both countries, so I cant see a project. i'd fairly advise getting the Aircoach bus or practice to Dublin, because it truly is a nightmare to force round. Aircoach is purely round £12 go back. The company practice is about £25 go back. if you're travelling Belfast, I advise you're taking the Coastal direction and shuttle to Coleraine / Portrush. it truly is a superb force around the Antrim Coast and our environment is superb.
