According to thenewdaily.com.au, the pay dispute between, CDC Victoria and the transport workers' union has not been resolved, and commuters will be given unlimited free travel on 49 bus routes in Melbourne as negotiations proceed.
Myki readers in Melbourne's West, Central and South-East parts of the East and Ballarat and Geelong will be closed from Saturday.
TWU said the 600 CDC bus drivers would refuse to charge and would not wear company uniforms.
This month, unions have organized the strike three times, followed by more strike. Negotiations between the union and the company lasted four months, but were again deadlocked.
Trade unionists are calling for a 4% pay rise, but the company is only willing to raise 2.5%.
The Fair work Committee failed to facilitate consultation on Friday.
"We have stopped running the bus three times," said John Berger, secretary of TWU, Victoria. "next week we may have another strike, and that's not impossible." We will continue the campaign and consider using all possible tools until an agreement acceptable to our members is reached. "
Berger said the TWU was ready to continue negotiations at any time.
"if the CDC is willing to make reasonable suggestions, we may see the day when the dispute is over."
Berger also noted that free driving is a good result, and drivers can continue to put pressure on operators without affecting commuters.
On Tuesday, the state bus driver performed a 24-hour strike, followed by two shorter-duration strike.
"Victoria bus drivers haven't had an strike for 20 years, but sometimes we have to pay attention to ourselves."
TWU previously said 90 percent of union members voted to take protective measures after the company's insulting proposal for a 2.5 percent pay rise.
The union says that is even lower than the average annual wage growth rate over the past 15 years.
A CDC spokesman said last week that the ratio was based on an Australian Bureau of Statistics compensation index model.
CDC offers drivers maternity, family and family leave, and permanent part-time options for workers who have yet to retire or return to the workplace.
"We believe that the proposed scheme has demonstrated the importance of the work of bus drivers, who provide important services to the community, but our recommendations are fair and reasonable."
A spokesman for the Victoria State Public Transport Association called on CDC and TWU to resolve the dispute as soon as possible for the benefit of all Victorians.
No bus charges lead to less revenue, which means less money into the state's public transport network.
