RAILTRAIN – AT IT AGAIN! VOTE AND VOTE NO!

Jun 16, 2021Update

After two years and already two “No” Votes, Railtrain have again sent out their proposed Hunter Port Services Enterprise Agreement for a vote. The employees that were originally issued a notice of representational rights no longer work for Railtrain, so Railtrain are trying to convince their current employees, who have not been advised of their rights, to vote for a sub-standard Agreement with conditions that in practice will leave them not much better off than being on Centrelink payments.

We are asking all employees who receive a ballot to VOTE NO to this substandard proposal.

Once again Railtrain’s actions demonstrate why Labor Hire employees should join the Union and become part of a collective to stand up with other Train Drivers and fight for decent and justified wage and conditions that are reflective of their skill and work responsibilities. Only as a strong force can we make Labor Hire and the companies that engage them do the right thing and pay proper wages and conditions.

The RTBU Locomotive Division has advised Railtrain we are bargaining for a single NSW Enterprise Agreement and that we will not accept separate agreements that are unnecessary, divide the workforce, prevent upward mobility, are deliberately aimed at driving down wages and conditions, and intentionally pit driver against driver!!

If you work for Railtrain or Trojan and you have not yet signed your respective MSD petition, we urge you to do so now. If you are a Train Driver in another company, to protect your future, you need to talk to your Labor Hire colleagues and explain to them the benefits of joining Your Union and standing as one to ensure all Train Drivers get remunerated properly and receive conditions that are reflective of Rail Industry Standards and not Centrelink standards. United we stand!

RAILTRAIN PORT SERVICES EMPLOYEES , IN SATURDAY’S EA BALLOT VOTE & VOTE NO
