Oz Apple Store staff vote to strike for better pay, settled rosters, clean shirts
The union representing Apple Store workers in Australia has called a strike as part of ongoing negotiations for a new pay and conditions deal.
The strike, agreed to yesterday by members of the Retail and Fast Food Workers Union , will see some staff at Australian Apple Stores stop work for an hour on October 18. Union members will also decline to undertake 15 specific tasks including accepting deliveries, installing screen protectors, meeting with Store bosses, or anything to do with arranging contracts with telecommunications carriers.
Stable rosters are another demand, on grounds that workers with children can't easily arrange care if their working hours change frequently. Extra pay for working late or on weekends is another demand. Workers also want Apple to provide them with five shirts and pay an AU$1.50 laundry allowance for each shift they work.
