Freight award to remain separate
The bulk freight-forward-ing award would not be amalgamated with the stores award, said the advocate for the distribution unions, Mr Rob Campbell, yesterday. Mr Campbell said that the unions had originally filed their claims with the bulk freight-forwarding award to be included, but last week had withdrawn the reference to freightforwarders. The inclusion of the
freight-forwarding award had worried employers of stores workers in Canterbury because the rates paid to freight-forwarding workers are $7O to $llO a week more than for stores workers. Canterbury employers of stores workers will meet on Tuesday to decide what action to take over the claim by the unions for a combined Northern, Canterbury, and Hawke’s Bay stores award.
