Melbourne’s train network may be hit by work bans and stoppages after about 99 per cent of Rail, Tram & Bus Union members voted to take industrial action over stalled negotiations regarding a new enterprise agreement. RTBU state secretary Luba Grigorovitch says the union has been holding talks with Metro Trains for five months, and members will try to minimise the impact of any disruption for commuters. The union is seeking a pay rise of six per cent for Metro’s operational staff, whose existing enterprise agreement expired at the start of July.
