We’ve also received a slide pack outlining what was being considered – which you can download here.While we know the MD is committed to improving consultation, it’s obvious some managers are more committed to their old ways of side-stepping their legal obligations to consult with employees and the union.
Australia Post’s move to hold discussions first with outside groups about something that has a potential to impact on jobs inside Post is a clear breach of the existing legal agreements with you and your Union.
We’ve written to Post expressing our opposition to Post’s failure to undertake proper consultation.
The union stated that these actions act in stark contrast to the terms set out by the Memorandum Of Understanding as signed by the Managing Director and the CEPU, where Post recognised that “effective and timely consultation is critical to prevent industrial issues arising.”
The Acting GM for MND Steve Ousley met with the CEPU’s National President last week and assured the union that the move has not been considered nationally and that before anything serious is even thought about, the union will be consulted.
