National community radio's weekly look at issues of industrial & workplace
justice.

program, see end of page.
Workplace Diversity - Workplace diversity is a new government initiative
which aims to raise awareness within the public sector of the importance of
an understanding of diversity & acceptance of difference among workers.
But, as Maria Dimopoulos [Workplace Diversity Trainer & Facilitator]
explains, the concept has been around much longer than this current
government's initiative. We also talk to Jeannette Large [Coordinator,
Women's Housing Outreach & Support Service] about what the practicalities
are of trying to apply the concept of workplace diversity in a concrete
workplace context.
Meat workers - Peter Reith has made no secret of his aim to decrease 'union
influence' of 4 key unions. A lot of attention has been placed on the CFMEU
& MUA but what of the others. One of these is the meat industry, already
suffering from the export of jobs via live stock exports. Tom Hannan [Fed.
Sec. AMIEU] explains the situation meat workers are in in 1999.
Boycott Barcadi - Joan Coxsedge [Australia-Cuba Friendship Society]
explains why Barcadi's latest marketting of its 'Cubano' rum exploits a
false identity of the company as Cuban & reveals this multinational's role
in the region & in supporting the USA's economic & political blockade of
Cuba, since the revolution in 1959. In particular, she discusses recent
efforts by the US to entrench & extend this blockade through the
Helms-Burton law & additions to it.
