CEPU member Josh Matonia was involved in a motor bike accident over the Australia Day Weekend, suffering breaks to his back, hip, & kneecap, a punctured lung, and losing his spleen & a kidney.

His partner Skye gave birth to their son Xander two days later, with Josh still in a critical condition in hospital. It was a stressful time for the family.

CEPU members raised $2500 dollars to assist Josh’s family during his recovery.

Josh still has a long road ahead with his recovery but is progressing well. He is looking forward to being able to drive again soon and return to work in the coming months.

Last Thursday CEPU Organiser Paul Scudds caught up with Josh, Skye & Xander. They wanted to express their gratitude to the CEPU members who were so generous, along with his employer Scott Mofflin & his workmates at Infront Electrical. ... See MoreSee Less

SA Power Networks staff to strike as unions prepare for public rally
Workers at SA Power Networks will go on strike today and join a public rally alongside South Australia’s paramedics, firefighters, nurses and midwives to demand more resources for the state’s essential services.

The protest – scheduled to start at 12pm in Victoria Square followed by a march to Parliament House – was organised last month by the Ambulance Employees Association (AEA) who are currently engaged in a protracted and bitter four-year industrial dispute with the government over resourcing for the ambulance service.

Opposition Senate Leader Penny Wong, AEA Secretary Phil Palmer and United Firefighters Union secretary Max Adlam will be among those speaking on the steps of Parliament House.

The Communications, Electrical and Plumbing Union announced late on Wednesday that some of their members who work for SA Power Networks would down tools for four hours on Thursday to join the protest.

The electricians are also engaged in ongoing enterprise bargaining negotiations with their employer, which began in June 2020.

The union says the most recent log of claims put forward by the state’s electricity distributor last week contained cuts to wages and removed limitations on the use of third party contractors – increasing job insecurity for permanent employees.

“We oppose SA Power’s cynical attempts to slash wages and cut working conditions during enterprise bargaining negotiations and members have voted to take industrial action over the coming weeks,” Professionals Australia Director Sarah Andrews said.

“It’s time SA Power ends its attacks on the workers and professionals providing essential services to our community, and comes to the bargaining table in good faith.”

SA Power Networks said arrangements were in place to minimise any potential service disruption for customers, and described the union’s claims about proposed wage cuts as “totally misleading and inflammatory”.

“SA Power Networks is seeking efficiency improvements as part of a negotiated Enterprise Agreement outcome aimed at ensuring the business remains Australia’s most efficient electricity distributon,” a spokesman said.

“The union claim that we are proposing to cut employee wages and conditions is totally misleading and inflammatory. We previously proposed a two per cent pay rise with no other change to terms and conditions that was rejected by unions and employees.

“We will continue to bargain in good faith for a new enterprise agreement.”

AEA Secretary Phil Palmer said he expects to see more than 200 paramedics at today’s protest.

“What we want to do is put a message to the government that the people who voted them into government have been let down by them, have been put at risk by them, because they want to do some kind of bargaining with the paramedics over more staff,” Palmer told InDaily.

Treasurer Rob Lucas, who is also responsible for industrial relations, last week offered to employ 50 additional paramedics and said the State Government was “committed to employing even more” when enterprise bargaining arrangements are resolved.

The Government is seeking reforms to rostering and meal breaks in return.

This includes shifting paramedics from 12 hour shifts to eight- and 10-hour shifts, and ensuring paramedics take meal breaks at their nearest station and not their home station – which can be up to 35km away.

The Government and the AEA will meet for their next mediation meeting on Wednesday, April 7. ... See MoreSee Less

Tomorrow there is a Rally for our Ambo's and our Fire Fighters.

These workers are fighting the state government to win fair resourcing so they can keep our communities safe.

You should attend this rally, because without adequate resourcing, you wont have the Emergency Services you need, when you need it most.
