In the last three months, Bargaining Periods have been sought against Airservices Australia by:
- The Community and Public Sector Union (CPSU) (28/11/08)
- The Communications, Electrical, Electronic, Energy, Information, Postal, Plumbing and Allied Services Union of Australia (1/12/08)
- The Association of Professional Engineers, Scientists and Managers, Australia (APESMA) (1/12/08) and
- Civil Air Operations Officers' Association of Australia (5/1/09)
Protected Action Ballots have followed in a couple of cases. These four unions cover the entire workforce within Airservices. Don't kid yourself that it's just the controllers that are unhappy. It is a spiteful, vindictive, hateful place to work.
