Industrial Action

LRT,
Simple, its the law.... we can't take industrial action, even if we wanted to, which we don't, by the way.

Any action taken outside of a protected period is deemed illegal, and could have penalties imposed on the union and possibly the individual.

Why do you think they are trying to goad us into it??!!

That is why Civil Air can not and does not support any illegal activities.

We are unable to persue any form of industrial action until the expiration of our current agreement, which is December 21.

Now that sounds like a particularly nasty time to be doing anything like that doesn't it?

If TFN and Co. can manage to provoke something before that, they win.

If we wait it out, and take our time, the pressure will be on them, not us.

One day they will come to their collective senses and genuinely negotiate.


But I'm not holding my breath.
