Unionists won't lower colours
September 07, 2007

A FEDERAL Government agency in Melbourne has been accused of bully-boy tactics for banning staff from flying union flags at their desks.

Workers at the Child Support Agency in Melbourne have been ordered to remove the flags amid a bitter dispute over pay and conditions.

However many employees have refused, and both sides have called in lawyers to resolve the impasse.

Last Wednesday, state CSA executive Lara O'Grady sent a memo to staff saying that union material could only be displayed on special notice boards.

"While we are happy for you to have the flags, displaying union material at your work station or in your work area is in breach of our union protocol," she said.

Community and Public Sector Union national organiser Rupert Evans said the directive was heavy-handed.
