Waitaki talks
Waitaki International management and combined union delegates will meet again tomorrow to try to reach agreement on a redundancy package for jobless freezing workers. Waitaki has cut 1600 jobs from its Islington and Burnside (Dunedin) plants. The national secretary of the Meat Workers’
Union, Mr Jack Scott, said talks “were progressing.” The public affairs manager for Waitaki, Mr John Bayley, said yesterday’s meeting had been constructive. Workers have been on strike at the two plants (which have now closed) since last week, blocking the shifting of products from the sites.
