Air Nelson mediation breaks down

Air Nelson mediation breaks down

The mediation between the Engineering, Printing and Manufacturing Union and Air Nelson over their pay dispute has broken down.

The breakdown comes after the company refused to offer a decent pay rise and advised it would be putting forward its best offer at the close of business today.

The EPMU will hold report-back meetings on Monday to allow members to vote on the company’s offer. If members vote to reject the offer, industrial action will begin as planned at one minute past midnight on Thursday.

The planned strike action includes rolling stoppages, a food freight handling ban and a blanket overtime ban for all union members and will be targeting Air Nelson operations between most of New Zealand’s provincial cities and main centres.
