- About these links
Workers in Australia are in dispute over plans by their employer, one of the "big four" logistics firms, to introduce a new inferior non-union contract.
The workers, members of the ITF-affiliated Australian Services Union (ASU) - three-quarters of whom are women - received details this week from their employer, TNT Shared Services Pty Limited, of plans to introduce a new contract to replace a union-backed agreement, which expired recently. Head office workers, such as receptionists and administration workers will be affected by the contract.
The new contract introduces a number of adjustments to working conditions including an increase in hours without any significant wage rise and the removal of the right to some public holidays.
Workers have organised a petition urging the company to negotiate the terms of the contract with the union. More than 75 per cent of affected employees have signed it. However, the company remains intransigent.
The union is now lobbying for a "no vote".
