Some 63 per cent of Svitzer Australia employees have voted in favour of the tugboat operator’s new four-year enterprise agreement. The Maritime Union of Australia withdrew its support for the agreement in the lead-up to the ballot, although the deal had the support of the Australian Institute of Marine & Power Engineers. Svitzer has agreed to some concessions after nearly four years of negotiations; amongst other things, it has given an undertaking to not outsource work performed by its employees during the first year of the agreement.
