Arnott's workers strike over pay dispute
Published 1 week, 1 day ago
Description
Around 160 workers at Arnott's Adelaide factory have walked off the job for 24 hours in the first industrial action at the biscuit manufacturer in over 30 years. The workers are protesting four years of 2.5% annual pay rises, which they claim has left them nearly 10% behind the cost of living. Night shift staff began the strike at midnight, with employees planning to march through Adelaide's streets demanding fair compensation for their work.
