Episode Details

Perth Airport braces for disruption this Friday as aviation screening officers plan a one-hour strike at the end of school holidays — potentially shutting down security equipment across all four terminals. The United Workers Union says this is just the beginning, with more actions looming for Monday. At the heart of the dispute: pay. Union reps argue Perth staff are earning far less than their counterparts at other state airports, all working for the same company, ISS — the very people tasked with preventing bombs and guns from boarding flights. The union is demanding better pay to ensure these critical workers aren’t stressed or demoralized. Perth Airport insists it’s working with ISS to keep operations safe and smooth, calling it a negotiation over a new contract. Watch this space — the stakes are high for travelers and security alike.
