Telstra workers rally for union rights

Issue 

Telstra workers, who are covered by the Communications, Electrical and Plumbing Union, rallied outside Telstra headquarters in Perth on April 6. The action was part of a 15-month dispute between the company and the union members. Telstra is offering a pay rise for a non-union enterprise agreement. The wage increase would not extend to an agreement negotiated by the CEPU on behalf of its members.
