RailCorp Agreement
RailCorp Breaks Its Promise With More Cuts
- Details
- Published on Friday, 21 May, 2010
RailCorp has put on the table 28 new reforms which mean cuts to conditions and jobs. They say that we need to agree to these to get a 3.5% pay rise.
Last agreement they committed to putting any money that we saved them through efficiencies into our pay rise this time. This money is more than enough to get us the pay rise we deserve.
| Year | They say they need for a 3.5% increase | They say they need for a 4% increase | Ongoing savings we’ve already made |
| 2010/2011 | $18m | $27m | $14m |
| 2011/2012 | $36m | $54m | $60m |
| 2012/2013 | $54m | $81m | $70m |
Enough money has been saved for a decent pay rise. The problem is that RailCorp say they gave away that money. So now they want us to undergo even more cuts! We say no! Come to your local meeting being held near you in the next few weeks to hear more and find out what you can do.

They spoke about your frustration and the need for the Government to put pressure on RailCorp to settle these negotiations. Their message was clear and well received. Let’s keep up the pressure!
