A call for solidarity from IUF:
Occupy Dandenong!
Workers fight lockout with lockin
National
Union of Workers (NUW) members at the International Flavours and
Fragrances (IFF) facility in Dandenong (Victoria) have responded to a
management lockout by occupying the lunchroom.
After months of fruitless bargaining for a new wage agreement which saw management demanding big concessions, union members voted to ban overtime and paperwork. Workers arriving for the early morning shift on January 27 were informed of the lockout and several dozen union members rushed inside as the gates were closing. They've installed themselves in the lunchroom while members and supporters demonstrate outside.
