Fair Work Commission orders shipping company to end worker lockoutAlmost 600 maritime workers won’t be locked out of work today after the Fair Work Commission ordered global shipping company, Svitzer, to scrap its plans. The Fair Work Commission ruled the lockout of 582,000 workers would cause significant damage to the Australian economy. The commission heard that if the lockout were to happen, shipping would be reduced by 90 per cent at major ports that Svitzer operated out of. It’s yet to be decided whether the commission will suspend the industrial action for a certain amount of time or terminate it completely. So the workers can strike but the company can’t lock them out. So which knobs allowed one company to manage 17 of our ports and which knobs allowed China to lease the Port of Darwin?

Tugboat workers walk off the job amid potential lockoutTugboat workers have walked off the job at major ports across the country this morning as a bitter stand-off with the nation’s biggest tugboat operator Svitzer only continues to escalate. Svitzer earlier in the week made it clear it’s planning to lock out workers from tomorrow at midday amid a dispute about pay and conditions. The Fair Work Commission this afternoon will hold a hearing to determine whether the lockout should be terminated altogether. 30% of Australia voted for this. Reap what you've sown. Why is it that strikes harm all workers? Even if not involved in strike, roll on effect is monumental to other worker. Supply chains interrupted, truck drivers/couriers, shelf stackers. No income for them. To say nothing of impact on small business. Hurtful dated strategy. 'This is a car yard not a shipyard, don't come in here for a tug.'
