Woolworths strike Fair Work




"You sure can't stop a t-shirt!"

The Fair Work Commission (FWC) has ordered the United Workers Union (UWU) to stop its members from blocking access to Woolworths' distribution centres.
The UWU has been on strike since November 21, seeking better pay and safety conditions for its members.
The FWC found that the union's actions were "unlawful" and "capricious or unfair".
The union has said it will only end the strike if its members vote to do so.
The strike has caused significant disruption to Woolworths' supply chain, with many stores running out of stock.
The company has said it is "disappointed" by the FWC's decision, but that it will comply with the order.
The strike is a reminder of the importance of fair working conditions for all Australians.
It is also a reminder of the power of unions to fight for the rights of their members.
The Fair Work Commission has ruled that the United Workers Union (UWU) is not bargaining in good faith with Woolworths as strikes at distribution hubs continue.
The FWC made the finding after Woolworths filed an application alleging a breach of the Good Faith Bargaining requirements in the Fair Work Act.
The matter has not yet been fully determined, but the FWC's decision is a significant setback for the UWU.
