Do union organizers get paid whilst the members are on strike or locked out. What award is Steve P paid under or is he on an individual agreement, thanks FOR STUFFING MY LIFE YOU GRUB.
erm...we haven't actually been locked out yet and are currently still being paid.
are you a qantas lame and alaea member? if so, you would know that SP draws his wage from the ALAEA. You may then comprehend that this arrangement gives him the protection required to do the work he does.
You would also know that the majority of the ALAEA executive are volunteers that are Full Time Employee LAME's employed by QANTAS. Their paycheque comes from the same place that all other QF LAME's does - QANTAS. That should give you some confidence that they don't take lightly their decisions regarding Qantas EB negotiations.
