Worker disciplined for wearing union badge Press Release: Service And Food Workers Union, New Zealand
A Service & Food Workers' Union (SFWU) member, working on the gaming floor at Sky City Auckland, faced disciplinary action this week after refusing to remove a badge celebrating Labour Day. The worker received a written warning in yesterday’s disciplinary meeting, a decision that his union, the Service & Food Workers’ Union (SFWU) says they will challenge.
Over 400 other SFWU members at Sky City wore badges on the same day, however the company management has singled out one worker for disciplinary action.
“We believe that union members have the right to wear union badges, particularly on Labour Day. We consider Sky City's actions discriminate against this worker and we will be challenging Sky’s decision.” said SFWU National Secretary Darien Fenton.------------------------------------------- posted 6:53 AM :: reference link ::
