Phonetec reneges on deal
|
Community Assembly
@ Phonetec 8.45am Tues January 2, 2007 370 Whitehorse Rd Nunawading. (near corner of Springvale Rd)  In a disappointing development Garry Chan, manager of Phonetec, has backed out of a deal to reinstate sacked worker Maggi Li. On Friday December 22 Garry Chan agreed to reinstate Maggi and the union (CEPU) agreed to work constructively with Phonetec to resolve issues around training. Chan initially backed down after a community assembly forced him into negotiations with ACTU president Sharon Barrow and the CEPU.It now appears that with the pressure off Phonetec, management feel they have a free hand with their workforce. Some people could come to the conclusion that Phonetec is planning to put all their employees on Australian Workplace Agreements. Getting rid of union members who stand up for their rights would be the first step. Please come and support this assembly, on the 22 Dec [2006] we forced Phonetec to back down, we can do it again.
