Unions are calling on every Australian to stand up for fairness and commit to a Streets-Free Summer.
Streets Ice-Cream management have hit the nuclear option and applied to terminate the collective agreement negotiated by workers and their union, the Australian Manufacturing Workers Union. This would leave Streets' employees facing a devastating 46% pay cut.
These workers need your support. We know that the only way we can make this company listen is to hit them where it hurts and boycott their products.
Products to avoid are Magnum, Golden Gaytime, Paddle Pop, Cornetto, Splice, Calippo, Bubble O'Bill, Blue Ribbon, and Vienetta.
This is bigger than just Streets. This is about standing up to corporations intent on destroying Australian workers’ pay, conditions and job security. This is about working people saying enough is enough.
The CUB dispute showed us that when we are strong, bosses cannot walk all over us. This summer we need to pick a side: supporting workers in struggle or standing by and letting corporate greed run unchecked.
Let’s all have a #streetsfreesummer.
In solidarity,
Australian Unions Team
