A new round of job cuts in Australia from a massively profitable operation like Westpac is unacceptable, the union for New Zealand bank workers said today.
Incorrect information being circulated. This update is to correct information that Westpac managers are circulating that FIRST Union agrees to the use of "name and shame" boards.
Bargaining with Westpac concluded late last night, with an offer that will go to a ratification vote of all members shortly. Your bargaining team is recommending this settlement to members.
Westpac’s strong cash earnings growth shows that the big Australian banks have not only survived but thrived during a global recession on the back off their own staff and customers, says the union for bank workers.
FIRST Union members in every Westpac workshite are entitled to attend a pre-negotiation meeting. This is your chance to have a say on how you feel about the bank's claims.
