Listen Up Cochlear! Protest outside Joe Hockey's Office Today....Wednesday @ 2.30PM
Conveners
'WEDNESDAY' INSTEAD OF TUESDAY. THANKS.
Dear Supporter,
In the last e-bulletin we mentioned the dispute at the Cochlear
factory in Lane Cove.
On Tuesday, a protest has been planned as part of the 'Listen Up
Cochlear!' Campaign, and we invite you to take part.
Where: Joe Hockey's Office - 100 Mount Street, North Sydney
(NB New location, instead of Walker St)
Date: Wednesday 22 August
Time: 2.30pm
>From the Australian Manufacturing Workers Union (AMWU):
Cochlear workers will be holding a rally outside the office of
Workplace Relations Minister, Joe Hockey. Cochlear is using John
Howard's unfair "WorkChoices" legislation to terminate their current
union collective agreement and force workers onto individual
contracts. Cochlear workers just want a fair deal. For full details
click on the "Listen Up Cochlear" logo at www.amwu.asn.au
Please come along and support the Cochlear workers. For further
details contact George Simon (AMWU Organiser) on 0400 055 081.
..............
North Sydney Your Rights at Work Group Supporters - I hope you can
come along or help out in some other way (see previous bulletin for
the e-petition campaign).
Please forward on this email.
Many thanks,
Julia Armitt
