crn Exhibition & Lonsdale Sts

Please come along, bring your banners and help us protest against Telstra Management and Howard’s way!

Telstra Management has notified several hundred employees they are being made redundant. This is not new in a company that has laid off over 50,000 workers since 1996.

What is new is that they intend to get rid of award workers on good wages and conditions and replace them with workers on individual contracts on about $11,000 a year less, with no 36 hour week and 9 day fortnight, and other poor conditions.
