DEALING with customs before or after a flight is already notorious for being a hassle, but travellers are bracing for real chaos as strikes target our international airports. Workers with the Department of Immigration and Border Protection, plus those in the Australian Border Force, will take part in a strike organised by the Community and Public Sector Union. The strikes will begin tomorrow, affecting Cairns and Townsville airports throughout the day. The rolling strikes will then target Brisbane, Cairns and Townsville airports on Wednesday and all international airports on Thursday. On Good Friday, workers will walk off the job at Sydney and Melbourne's International airports, along with Brisbane, Cairns and Coolangatta. CPSU National Secretary Nadine Flood said: "These large-scale strikes reflect the incredible frustration being felt by people working in the public sector. "Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull has ignored our offer of talks to fix the Government's public sector bargaining mess, so serious industrial action will begin on Monday and continue in airports for a number of weeks ." "Striking workers are targeting the politicians and bosses who continue to treat them with contempt, but these rolling strikes may have some impact on the public, particularly at international airports. "As with previous action at airports, we would advise passengers to contact their airline for information on whether they will be effected, and allow extra time when departing and arriving on international flights." The strikes will continue until Friday April 1
Best pay and conditions in the world and they want more? Targeting politicians and bosses is a load of crap, its targeting travellers. Pure union bastardry. The sooner they're bought into line the better.
Treat them with contempt because they are contemptable. Especially the morons in Melbourne--internationally reknowned ****heads.
Hope they all get fired. And have to spend 2 hours getting their unemployment check, every week.
I wouldn't like to frisk a fat smelly git after a 8 hr flight
Pay them more imho
Derp derp that's the job. Don't like it, find another.
