Australian postal workers industrial action

Postal workers are ready to halt all industrial action planned for Friday 18 December through to Monday evening if Australia Post senior management agrees to meet to resolve outstanding issues in the postal dispute.

“We’ve been asking for a meeting with senior management for some time. Chief Operating Officer Jim Marshall has said he is now willing to meet us on the enterprise bargaining agreement (EBA7)”, said CEPU National President Ed Husic.

“What is at stake for postal workers is security in full-time jobs, protection of penalty shifts and rosters, an end to Facility Nominated Doctors (company doctors) who force employees back to work even when they are sick or injured, and access to an independent umpire in any future disputes," said Mr Husic.
