Scoop has an Ethical Paywall
VIDEO/ AUDIO: footage of workers at Farmers St Lukes
FIRST Union organiser Kate Davis says the turnout at today’s pickets was overwhelming and quite unexpected.
“Look it just shows how frustrated these workers are, they’re sick of having crap pay and feeling so undervalued.”
Ms Davis says Farmers workers
don’t often strike, and it’s hoped the fact hundreds did
across the country will speak volumes to head
office.
“There’s still more that staff are keen to do
if this has no effect. Farmers touts itself as a family
brand and it’s steeped in so much Kiwi history, to devalue
workers and create financial struggles for families just
goes straight against this, it’s just nonsense.”
