12 Sep Hutchison Ports Reaches New Deal With Unions
Hutchison Ports has confirmed the signing of a new four-year Enterprise Agreement with unions, including the Maritime Union of Australia (MUA). This agreement secures operational stability and continuity across its terminals through to 2029.
The new Enterprise Agreement has secured an 18.25% pay rise for workers over the four years, establishes a binding ban on automation for the life of the new agreement and provides greater flexibility in managing labour resources and availability, enabling operations to better align with shipping line service arrivals in Port Botany and Brisbane. This is also expected to enhance service levels for landside operators, including rail and trucking.
This agreement rounds out all major container terminal enterprise agreements until 2028-2029, providing welcome stability for the industry.
