The three options would be:

1. Current Option +3% payrise.

2. Current Option +4% payrise.

3. Current Option +6%payrise.

I don't think management realise that we have been on the current EBA since 2002 and people don't want a change. All you are doing with these roadshows is wasting more money that apparently we need to save. Lets say $1.5-2million for the failed EBA and the current proposal. How much money are they expecting to save if we were silly enough to vote in there proposal? $5million over 5years. So if we keep voting down agreements not only wont they save any money they will have wasted as much trying.
Its time for this foolishness to end. Look at other areas before the whole workforce is unionised and asking for 10% pa.

PS I would vote for number 3. It would be the first real payrise since 2005. 2006 and 2007 were just 3% CPI increases when the company was at its best.
