Sigma back to work
March 21, 2012
SIGMA Pharmaceuticals this
morning advised that following an
application to Fair Work Australia to
deal with the ongoing industrial
action at its Rowville plant in
Victoria, a “conciliated outcome has
been reached with the National
Union of Workers”.
Staff were locked out of the facility
as part of the extended dispute.
The move will see staff return to
work effective today, and both
parties have also agreed to enter
into a further process over the next
28 days to work towards
developing a final agreement.
“While it will take a number of
days for the facility to resume full
operations, Sigma anticipates
‘business as usual’ by Monday 26
March 2012,” the company said in a
stock market update this morning.
“Sigma thanks its team,
customers and suppliers for their
support and patience over the past
few weeks,” the company added.
