The protracted industrial action taken by 18 crew members on board the MT Stolt began last weekend after the company revealed plans to reflag the ship to the Cayman Islands and sack the crew in favor of cheap unskilled foreign labour.
The MUA National Assistant Secretary, Mick Doleman said, the stance taken by the crew was extremely significant in the current industrial relations environment.
"This MOU is a moral victory for the crew on board the MT Stolt who stood up for their rights and their jobs".
