Freightliner EA voted up

Freightliner Coal Haulage employees have unanimously voted in favour of an Enterprise Agreement that will make them the highest-paid freight drivers in the state for a 38-hour week.

The vote was held on Friday 8 April, the agreement was signed by both parties and has been submitted to Fair Work Australia for approval.

This agreement should be in force before 1 May and is likely to see employment in the Rail Industry become competitive.
