NO DIRECT ACTION
POSTAL WORKERS REJECT EXECUTIVE’S PLAN COURT DECISION AWAITED MELBOURNE, February 3. Postal workers have rejected their union executive’s recommendation that they take direct action to gam improved wage and working standards. They decided to withhold action until the court had adjusted the basic wage and dealt with the Postal Workers’ Union’s application for higher marginal rates and wage loadings. About 400 members of the union attended the meeting. Recently, the executive of the Victorian branch recommended to the Federal executive of the union that stopwork meetings be held in all States, and that go slow tactics should be employed to enforce the demands for a basic wage of £6/8/-.
