The picket line at Australian, Dyeing Company (16 9 Noone Street, CLIFTON HILL) continues despite the lockout on the Dec 1st. These workers still need our support. Textile workers at Australian, Dyeing Company (16 9 Noone Street, CLIFTON HILL) have been locked out after taking industrial action in support of their enterprise bargaining claim. Eighty TCFUA members have been outside the gate without pay since 1st December 1998. They need your solidarity and support. The company has: • offered to give workers a pay increase if they resign from the Union and go on individual contract • threatened them with the sack • hired 45 Chubb security guards 24 hours a day to keep workers out used non-union untrained students to do TCFUA members work • spent $100,000 on security cameras and microphones to spy on protesting workers at the site • hired Peter Reiths personnel lawyer to represent the company The TCFUAS members are strong and determined but your support will help win this dispute for every worker.
