Phonetec dispute at crucial stage, need your support
by Union Solidarity Wednesday January 03, 2007 at 11:48 PM
contact@unionsolidarity.org

The victimisation and unfair dismissal of a union member is a classic example of what any employer can do under Howard's IR laws. It’s now up to the community and union movement to show what we can do. If you can't attend the actions at Phonetec in Nunawading please find another way to get involved in the fight to reinstate Maggi Li.

Community Assembly
@ Phonetec
Thurs & Fri 8.45am
January 4 and 5.
370 Whitehorse Rd
Nunawading. (near corner of Springvale Rd)

Community action to reinstate a sacked telecommunications worker in Nunawading is planned to continue for the rest of the week. If you haven't been to the assembly yet please make the effort to go. There is a lot at stake in this dispute.
