IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR ALL PN MEMBERS
RTBU National Secretary Mark Diamond today wrote to Pacific National CEO Dean Dalla Valle to express his strong concerns about the company’s attempt to ram through changes to your Enterprise Agreements.
A copy of Mark’s letter to PN can be found in this attachment.
Only yesterday, Mark Diamond and Allan Barden had a meeting with the CEO, at which it
was made clear that any proposed changes to EAs would only happen well into the future.
Shockingly, as soon as the meeting finished your management approached other RTBU officials in an attempt to ram through changes to EAs.
The RTBU will vehemently oppose any changes unless PN provides evidence of why our members will be better off.
The RTBU considers PN’s proposed EA changes to be ambit claims which are highly irresponsible at this time.
PN should reconsider its behaviour towards to RTBU.
In this environment we can work collaboratively for everyone’s benefit. However, this requires a level of transparency that clearly was not forthcoming in recent interactions.
