BHP wage deals scrapped as unions win Fair Work fight – Sydney Morning Herald
Mining giant BHP has lost a legal fight with trade unions over the pay and conditions affecting thousands of workers.
Construction, Forestry Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU) officials, representing BHP’s coal mine workforces in Queensland, called on BHP to apologise to Operations Services employees.
“BHP is hardly a newcomer to the industry. They know what is required,” CFMEU mining and energy president Tony Maher said. “They should apologise to their Operations Services employees for this sneaky manoeuvre and immediately begin genuine bargaining for new agreements that reflect coal mining industry standards.”
