QUBE Members Enterprise Agreement Update

Last week, we received a copy of a QUBE’s “Enterprise Agreement Bargaining – Communication Update #1” dated 13 January 2023, which was sent out to all Employees.

Let us set the record straight, QUBE did not put their pay claim to your bargaining representatives at the meeting of 14 December 2022, or at any bargaining meeting.

This claim is pure fiction.

In response to QUBE’s “Communication Update”, the Locomotive Division has written formally to QUBE Management expressing our concerns. Our correspondence can be seen in the attached Newsflash below.

QUBE also continues to talk of “flexibility and meeting client demands” instead of moving on important member claims to improve rostering and work/life balance. While management continue to reject important claims, members are preparing to take action to achieve a fair replacement agreement.

Our next bargaining meeting will be held 27 January 2023. Members will continue to be advised of any and all developments as they occur.

Members are reminded that the RTBU Locomotive Division will be out on tour in early February. We hope to see as many members as possible to tell you the truth about the Enterprise Agreement negotiations so far.
