Lines strike called off
July 31, 2007
EPMU Media Release
Lines strike called off
Engineering, Printing and Manufacturing Union members at electrical lines company Tenix have withdrawn their notice of strike action after the company substantially increased its offer.
As a sign of good faith the workers withdrew their notice, which was to include an overtime and on-call ban, yesterday and will return to the negotiating table tomorrow and Thursday.
Tenix is the sole maintenance provider for lines-company Powerco and many of the negotiating EPMU members were involved in restoring power in Taranaki after the recent tornado damage.
