Can Dairymen Pay Living Wage Debate Divides Union
The Australian Workers Union pushes for an Industrial Arbitration Act claim to raise hours and wages for rural workers, including dairy farm hands to a base pay of £2 19s 6d for 44 hours and three weeks paid leave. Farmers argue the industry cannot sustain such an award, with district council members questioning feasibility and urging evidence before the Conciliation Committee.
