Wongawilli Win
from Stick Together Hosted by Annie McLoughlin, Bob Timbs
Wongawilli Colliery mineworkers have won a spectacular win against Wollongong Coal after taking strike action. CFMEU's tTony Maher emphasises the importance of this win. “The conversion of permanent, well paid jobs into poorly paid, insecure jobs is a huge issue right across the country. What this win proves is that the trend is reversible. If labour hire workers join their union, we can turn this around.” We finish our report with a look at the Port Kembla Coal Terminal dispute in the same area of NSW.
