After whopping 8 withdrawals of labour, 3 pickets and 4 rounds of bargaining, #FIRSTUnion members at Zeagold in Auckland have WON! 🏆🥚
These workers have won themselves EVERY claim they asked for, including a 10% pay rise. Now THAT'S a #BigFix, egg-cellent ✊
Excited for the upcoming International Paramedics Day to celebrate all the great work you have all been doing. How are you going to be celebrating? #proudtobeaparamedic #internationalparamedicsday
