First Union workers at Fletcher Buildingâ s Crane Distribution site in Onehunga have walked off the job in a bid for higher pay. Union organiser Jared Abbott says the workers are paid between $32,000 and $36,000 a year. They've asked for a three percent pay rise but Mr Abbott says Fletcher's had adopted a country wide pay rise cap of two percent. He says Crane is one of the most profitable parts of Fletcher Building with operating earnings in the past year of $106 million. |
