Bass and Flinders Cruises have slashed the wages and conditions of their workers. The company has refused to negotiate with the union even after the MUA has recognised the company's right to operate and has agreed to establish terms and conditions suitable for the specific needs of the enterprise. Bass and Flinders have used old WorkChoices laws, rejected by the community at the last election to slash base wages by 25%; they have also cut leave by 20% on base minimum standards.
We ask for the support for the workers who are simply asking for their rights at work to be protected. Produced by Jamie McMechan Maritime Union of Australia Film Unit. www.mua.org.au

Congratulations on a job well done persuading Bass & Flinders management to agree to sit down at the negotiating table and hammer out a union collective agreement. Well done.
