Strike over as Woolworths workers accept new offer from supermarket giant
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-12-07/woolworths-industrial-action-victoria/104697608Strikes work.
Industrial action works.
Unions work for the workers.
Woolies is no friend of workers.
The Fair Work Commission is not fair.The United Workers Union got Woolies management to finally agree not to punish workers for their speed of work, and to give workers a boost in wages.
The "framework" that Woolies was trying to foist on its warehouse workers would have required warehouse staff to achieve a 100% performance and speed.
The union called it "dangerous, inhumane and unsafe". I consider it unrealistic for humans, dangerous for robots, and certain to cause injuries to anyone nearby in a short time. Think about it for a moment you'll see it was absolutely bonkers and whoever proposed it should be sacked for posing such a dire OH&S risk.
This debacle has shown that the Fair Work Commission is not fair and impartial.
Furthermore, Woolies has blown millions of dollars to show everyone they're no friend of workers.I urge you to continue your boycott of Woolies, and start campaigning to have the Governor General clear-out LNP stooges from the FWC.

Woolworths wins Fair Work Commission bid against United Workers Union
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-12-06/woolworths-lawyer-accuses-union-of-metaphorical-gun/104692632This is grim news for Woolies workers.
And, it sets a bad precedent. Other large retailers with distribution centres around Australia will be looking at this news and thinking they can screw their workers the same way and not face a picket-line outside their warehouses.
It's also worth noting that the Fair Work Commission has been stacked by LNP cronies over the last few years when the LNP were in government and had power over appointments. I'm sure many people at the Fair Work Commission try to be impartial, but it shouldn't come as a surprise when they sometimes make decisions that favour big business. The LNP has a long history of undermining "independent umpires" -- workers at Woolies and the United Workers Union are not on a level playing field.
The good news is that the United Workers Union is likely lodge an appeal, so they're still in with a fight.
My personal boycott of Woolies remains in place -- my partner & I are instead shopping at other supermarkets and local grocers, and we're thinking of making the boycott permanent. I suggest you show solidarity with the workers and boycott Woolies.
