It follows 96% of members last month voting in favour of escalating protected industrial action until the electricity distributor comes to the table with an offer that keeps up with massive cost of living increases.
ETU NSW/ACT Secretary Allen Hicks said: “Endeavour Energy is trying to dud essential workers out of a fair and reasonable pay rise.
“The company’s insulting offer doesn’t come close to meeting the massive cost of living increases that workers have weathered in recent years.
“Endeavour Energy topped up key management pay by more than 12 per cent in 2023 alone, but is crying poor when it comes to paying workers what they’re worth.
“We’ll keep the pressure on for as long as it takes to get a fair wage increase for workers who deserve better.”
