Telstra employees redundancy win
The Federal Court last week upheld an old Redundancy agreement between
Telstra & its employees - a further step in the campaogn to avoid massive
job cuts foreshadowed by Telstra CEO earlier this year. Divisional
Secretary of the Communications Division of the CEPU, Burt Blackburne
explains & also gives an update on the campaign against the further
sell-off of Telstra & the reaction of rural communities.
WA docks picket
AMWU members and officials are 3 weeks into a picket on the Freemantle
docks after a company attempted to import an manufacturing plant and
associated workers from South African for setting up in WA. While the issue
of "Aussie jobs" needs not to get bogged down in the parochial, the moving
of entire manufacturing concerns off-shore from South Africa raises some
serious concerns. We caught up with AMWU organiser John Mosselton on his
way to his picket shift.
Economic summits to climb
With so much talk about the World Economic Forum, state & federal budgets,
& the Victorian government's recent Economic Summit=85.3CR's Nola Brooks
talks with community activist, Marion Harper, about a proposed "People's
Economic Summit" to be held later this year at which grassroots activists
and community members will have the chance to formulate the economic
blueprint they'd like to see in this country.
