Business shamed over AWA
Pat Denny
21 October 2006 On October 13, 50 people from the local Your Rights at Work campaign group protested outside a real estate agents office over his attempt to pressure Gail Austin, a long-term employee, to sign an Australian Workplace Agreement (individual contract) that would have slashed [her] income by $30,000, according to Workers Online. Austin said that she was told to sign the agreement or quit. Mark Ptolemy from the Your Rights at Work group said: This company has done nothing illegal, but that doesnt mean its actions are not highly immoral.
