The bosses of the Tatura and Wangaratta abattoirs want local workers to sign a new workplace agreement. Of course, it's not really an “agreement” since the bosses aim to sack workers who don't sign.
“Sign this, or you're sacked”: people signing a contract under threat of losing their job - losing their means of living, feeding their family, and paying off a house - are not “entering into an agreement”; it's more like economic blackmail.
What's the game plan behind all this? Here's how it works:
A) Workers lose the decent pay and good working conditions that we Aussie workers have, for decades, fought for.
B) Therefore, many workers leave for better paying jobs.
C) Bosses then complain that they can't get skilled labour (because workers have gotten jobs elsewhere rather than stay around to be ripped off).
D) Bosses make deals with the government to bring in foreign workers (Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, etc.) as so-called skilled workers (although many are woeful; poorly-trained and under-skilled). This Asianisation of the Australian workforce is a plan to get a compliant workforce who won't grumble at awful working conditions.
The result * Bosses get a cheap subservient workforce, who are unlikely to strike for better pay and conditions.
* Liberal-Labor politicians keep national wage levels low, at the expense of Aussie workers; this fits in with their plans to globalise the Australian economy, and with their desire to Asianise Australia.
How do we fight it?
1) Don't sign Individual Work Agreements (IWAs); this is just a way for bosses to “divide and conquer” the workers.
2) Support unions in opposing IWAs and the importation of foreign workers; if your union refuses to fight, then join one that will, or elect better union representatives.
3) Oppose Liberal-Labor-Big Business destruction of traditional Australian working conditions.
Invasions of foreign workforces are occuring all over the country
For example: Sudanese are being spread throughout Australia from Hobart to Colac to Warnambool to Toowoomba. 10,000 Chinese to Sunraysia, to the Orde River. 5,000 Iraqis in & around Shepparton up to the Murray, and now Dubbo too. Young, NSW: the Burrangong Meat Works employed over fifty Afghans despite community protests. Newcastle, NSW: Sudanese are now privileged employees at Steggles Chickens, with arranged jobs and arranged housing, a new docile labour force has arrived. Toowoomba, NSW: more Sudanese are being brought in to supplant Aussie workers. Charleville, Qld.: contract labour has been flown in from Vietnam. In Murray Bridge, SA, meat exporting processor T&R Pastoral is reported to be flying in over 100 Chinese process workers; Teys in Naracoorte, SA, have also shunned their local workforce in favour of Chinese; and in Cobram, Victoria, rumours are rife about plans to use foreign workers to replace Aussie workers who refuse to sign IWAs.
* The Asianisation of the Australian workforce is happening in many areas of life. For instance, many people have shown cause for concern that Third World doctors are just not up to standard, leading to poor health care and even deaths of Aussie adults and children.
Fight the decimation of the Australian workforce by Liberal-Labor and their globalist big business mates.
