NSW government loses bid to stop rail industrial action | Rabe9

The Fair Work Commission on Saturday afternoon dismissed the NSW government’s application to suspend the industrial action for 10 weeks.

Premier Dominic Perrottet and Transport Minister David Elliott inspect the Sydney Metro City tunnels last year.Commuters have faced heavy disruptions on the rail network over recent weeks as the rail unions refused to staff some overseas-built trains, while the government has warned ongoing action on the Sydney Metro project is blowing out its cost by hundreds of millions of dollars.

Premier Dominic Perrottet declared “enough is enough” on Monday and announced his government would drag the unions before the industrial umpire as their action continued to cause disruptions across Sydney’s rail network. Lawyers for the government argued the ongoing industrial action was “significantly” damaging the NSW economy and impacting Sydney’s workers, who have been subject to disruptions for weeks.

The loss comes as the NSW government is engaged in multiple disputes with public sector workers, who are pushing for higher wages amid rising inflation.
