Council workers protest


17 November 1993

MELBOURNE — On August 16, 60 workers employed by the Moonee Valley City Council attended a lunch-time rally to protest against attacks on the working conditions of library workers.

Australian Services Union assistant secretary Brian Parkinson told the rally that the council's CEO was trying to change weekly working hours in the library from 35 to 38. Parkinson warned that this would be a precedent for other councils to follow.
