Marky the only people who like individual contracts are management.
They are the only ones that gained from them.Others did not.

Mining is a good example actually.

you can only be ‘forced’ if the majority of employees want it that way.

Fancy that

When Tony gets in he doesn’t have to reform IR. All he has to do is pass a law that the unions cannot give any money to a political party unless 100% of the members of the union approve in a secret ballot. It’s time the ALP had its funds cut off. The cunts deserve to shrivel up and die.

You really are a truly stupid man.

You can be forced onto an EBA by other employees and a union you’re not a member of with NO recourse to an indvdual conmtract.

You truly are a stupid man.

What if some of the employees don’t like the EBA? What can they do now?

“Oh no they’ll all vote for the agreement ‘cept management types…”

Do you realise managers are generally employees in large orgs where EBAs are useful?

err Marky do you understand what an EBA is.

An employee is not forced into an EBA.
the employees that like individual agreements are management types.
guess why

Try and read but just to help out a Union can negotiate an EBA but only employees can approve it.
They vote against it is toast.

‘ONLY employees can approve an EBA’

An interestng theory Homer if an employee was previously on an indvidual agreement and liked it.

no it is you lot who have no idea of what negotiation is like in an EBA nor have you any idea of history.
1979/80 was the golden age of pattern bargaining.

Don’t know what pattern bargaining is, don’t know what EBA’s are ( No Judith ONLY employees can approve an EBA. This was a Gillard change from Howard).

“I knew that you couldnt tell the difference – and you just proved it.”

Umm yeah sure. JC failed high school commerce because he uses a more general definton of factor payments (like actual economists do…)to labour than the year 9 textbook does….and he doesn’t know what a dictionary is.
