South East Melbourne’s Speed Camera Cars off road today ahead of 48 Hour Weekend Stoppage

Community and Public Sector Union - Victoria < 1 mins read

UPDATE:

Speed Camera Cars will be off the road right across Melbourne's south eastern suburbs today ahead of this coming Weekends 48 hour stoppage.

There will be no camera cars on the roads today from Carrum to Frankston to Portsea & also greater Dandenong area thru Cranbourne to Bunyip with operator industrial action & breakdowns 

Motorists should observe all speed limits and exercise caution and drive safely as they head off for the weekend.

 

Speed Cameras Off Road this coming Weekend for 48 hours

Mobile road safety camera operators will escalate their industrial action this weekend with a forty-eight hour (48) walk off commencing midnight Friday.

Again, the state government contracted multinational employer Serco Asia Pacific pty ltd plays silly delaying games to frustrate a resolution of this safety and pay dispute.

Instead of improving safety and hourly pay rates of the lowest paid workers in Victoria the employer has decided to re-survey staff on variations of its rejected proposals.

Instead of increasing their rejected pay offer, Serco has just remixed the same overall amount to con operators that they are addressing the issues that remain in dispute.

These stoppages will continue until safety suggestions are adopted and acceptable salary and condition improvements come forward that deal with cost of living pressures.

Statement on appropriate regulation of land lease communities

Melbourne, July 15: Land lease communities need better regulation to protect older people from mistreatment, according to Housing for the Aged Action Group. Today a story published by the ABC highlighted problematic deferred management fees charged by some land lease communities or residential parks. These often-exorbitant fees make it extremely difficult for older people who have purchased properties in these communities to leave. Housing for the Aged Action Group Executive Officer Fiona York says these fees are just one example of many problems caused by a lack of regulation. “This shocking story is unfortunately not a surprise to us,” she…
