I bet we do not see that in the news.

Collective barganing WITHOUT a union and a sucessful result...who would have thought...

I thought there was some union involvement? There was mention of union meetings at the least?

Dags?

Update.

Put to a secret ballot last week 80% disapproved 20% approved.

New agreement

4.5% for each year.

Five year term.

Increase of another sickday without certificate (4days).

and retrenchment payout increased to 17years of service from 15year cut off.

O/T stays as time and a half for the first 3 hours, Double for 2 hours then back to time and a half for the next 3 hours.

Pretty sure this one will go through.

personally I would not go for that its not enough and as for the overtime rates why not have time and half for 2 hours then double time after that and double time for as long as you are working

Zap's right mate there has been very minimal input from the Union in this one, although they were present they didnt have as much input as they have in years gone by, there membership in our factory was lost from an idiot they sent out for a barganing agreement 6 years ago and has never recovered. This was more on the back of the guy's standing by each other and trying to get a fair deal for themselves.

Having said that they did attend all meetings and were exemplary in helping the guys out and giving guidance where needed.

Because the company would go broke trying to pay guys like you......

why have overtime at all, if 4 staff work over time 2 hours a day, wouldnt it be cheaper to put another staff member on. lol
