These days, Sydney`s partners should have been bewildered by the upheaval of the train system.
The timetable of the train has been reduced by a large number of trains, 15 minutes, and the train has changed from eight to four.
The platform was full of people, and every bus was packed to leave.
Don`t worry, it`s not something wrong with the Sydney train line, or it`s suddenly double the number of people in Sydney.
It was a tug-of-war between the train union and the government.
All this stemmed from the discontent of the train system`s unions with their wages and working conditions, so they told the Sydney railway department that:
We need a raise!
So this has to be a curious question-
What is the salary of the train system?
What salary standards and workload make them so angry and dissatisfied?
Australian media revealed:
Sydney`s official train drivers now earn more than six figures a year!
In other words, these drivers are paid more than one hundred thousand Australian dollars a year.
Even intern drivers earn more than 70,000 a year.
In addition, according to the information on the recruitment website:
Part-time customer service at the railway station earns $1,000 a week.
The annual salary of the railway maintenance workers is $92536
Train intern guard starting salary $62567.36
In addition, they take the new state bus is free.
As a matter of fact, the salary and benefits are enough for the editor to be envious.
Netizens from Tuao also said:
"Let`s get in the driverless train."
"greedy, I am my own boss, I earn less than half of them."
"go and rob."
"how can they make so much money!"
According to their demands, they hope to increase their annual salary by 6% on the current basis.
After several negotiations, the Sydney Railway Department has not agreed to meet their demands, so it has not been able to discuss several times.
So we are suffering and waiting for the car.
Although their pay is already very high, train system staff say it is not directly proportional to their efforts.
Train system staff have to work overtime in some emergencies, sometimes working more than 12 hours in a row, according to Krystle Barry, a railway station worker.
And, she said, most train employees are unhappy with their pay because many of them are forced to work during their rest hours, even without any financial compensation.
"it is true that Andrew Constance (`s New State Secretary of Transport and Infrastructure said at a press conference that he or she would always have to extend the operating time, and that it will be the same in the future."
"but I would like to reiterate that we will continue to work longer hours than the standard, but we will not go to work when we are off duty."
This week, the two sides have held a number of meetings, or failed to resolve their wage dispute.
On Wednesday, all train employees voted on a 3.45% pay increase offered by the Sydney Railways, which was widely rejected.
So they proposed a 24-hour strike next Monday.
The new state government is very demanding that the Fair Work Commission cancel the strike.
They say the massive strike could cause direct economic losses of between 50 million and 90 million.
According to the latest news from yesterday, the strike was really stopped by the new state government-
The 29 th strike is suspended and will not take place for the next six weeks.
They will continue to negotiate on the issue of wage increases.
Visually, this wave of wages for the drivers is set to rise, but how much is only a matter of how much.
I just want to ask everyone.
Where should train go to learn, zero foundation OK?
