CEPU welcomes MMUA's recognition of our difficulties

Thursday 10 December 2009

 

The CEPU has received support from an unexpected quarter as we take on the "monopoly mentality" of Australia Post.

 

Industry group the Major Mail Users of Australia - that represent over 85% of of bulk mail lodgement - issued a note to its members updating them on our problems with Australia Post.

 


 

We quote directly from their recent bulletin:

"The Union has been treated with the type of disdain dished out by the AP monopoly mentality that MMUA has been subjected to for the
past 5-years"

 



The full memo can be
downloaded here.

 

It also goes on to dismiss Post management's crude attempt to belittle the voice of our members in their recent protected action ballot.

"...non-compulsory voting and they get 60% voting! Doesn't matter what AP-LETTERS says, that is an excellent industrial relations result."

The CEPU has been in contact with MMUA for quite some time.

 

We - and our members - value their support of the postal service.

 

And we have indicated to them we would like to minimise the impacts as much as we can - and will let them know about action that might be of interest to them.

 

The MMUA isn't buying into the dispute - but they can see similarities between the way they have been treated by current management and they way the CEPU and its members have been treated.
