New Zealand Casino Workers Are Organising To WIN! Service and Food Workers Union (SFWU) delegates from casinos around New Zealand gathered in Auckland for the first day of a two-day conference. Over 50 delegates from New Zealand and Australia will spend the two days discussing issues for NZ casino workers and developing strategies for organizing in the casino industry. Attendees at the conference will discuss issues such as ‘union busting’ by employers, escalating action during bargaining, and dealing with ‘free-loaders’ and ‘union-only’ agreements with employers. NZ delegates will also learn from the experiences of the Australian Liquor, Hospitality and Miscellaneous Union (LHMU) delegates and organizers who are attending the conference and presenting workshops. LHMU is the union for Australian casino workers, and includes members at Sky City’s Adelaide casino. “We have learned a lot recently from organizing successes in Auckland and Dunedin so to build on that delegates will be making plans to increase SFWU activity in the casino industry nationwide.” Workshops being held tomorrow will determine the SFWUs’ strategy for national casino organizing over the next period.
