10月18日新西兰工作场所关系部消息，新西兰的工会和劳动人民正在庆祝《公平薪酬协议法案》的进展，该法案将于今天进行二读。
工作场所关系部长迈克尔·伍德(Michael Wood)在议会旁边举行了一次活动，庆祝该法案的进展。
新西兰工会理事会、公共服务协会、海事工会、小学教师后协会、新西兰合并工人工会和电车工会出席了此次活动。
NZCTU主席理查德·瓦格斯塔夫表示，该法案代表了工人权利的新时代。
工作场所关系部长迈克尔伍德说:“我们需要引入一个新的行业地板，就像大多数其他国家一样。我们需要保护劳动人民免于相互对抗。新西兰的企业沉迷于廉价劳动力，沉迷于伤害工人的商业模式，这种情况即将改变。
迈克尔伍德说:”公平薪酬协议是关于重视人们在新西兰所做的工作。 在新西兰生产的一切，它需要雇主和雇员相配合的。在这次讨论中，工人坐在谈判桌前是公平的″。
迈克尔.伍德在接受活动工作人员采访时说：“我们需要确保你所做的事情再次受到重视。我们正在逆转30年来人们被排除在系统之外。 来自不同工会的劳动人民谈到了这项法案将如何改变他们的生活”。
快餐工人和联合工会成员亨利斯蒂芬森表示他的日常生活是关于在一场逐底竞赛中幸存下来。 低薪的长时间工作并不能产生快乐或富有成效的社会成员。
安全工作者和E tū成员罗西·恩加科普说:”FPA代表了工人为自己创造更好生活的机会。我相信FPA将重置我们面临的许多行业问题”。
ECE老师和NZEI成员凯瑟琳沃恩表示，她的部门迫切需要FPA。”这场危机直接影响了我们的后代。我们都应该得到平等的重视。FPA将有助于实现这一目标。
公共汽车司机和电车工会成员莫里斯道森说:”劳动人民必须站立一起。作为轮班工人，我们需要停机时间，以及与家人在一起的时间。过度劳累成为公交车司机安全问题”。《公平薪酬协议法案》预计将于今天下午在议会通过二读。
Working people celebrate progress of FPA Bill
Unions and working people across Aotearoa New Zealand are celebrating the progress of the Fair Pay Agreements Bill ahead of its second reading today.
Workplace Relations Minister Michael Wood held an event beside Parliament to celebrate the Bill’s progress.
The event was attended by the New Zealand Council of Trade Unions, E tū, Unite, First, NZEI Te Riu Roa, Public Services Association, Maritime Union, Post Primary Teachers, Association, Amalgamated Workers Union NZ, and Tramways Union.
NZCTU President Richard Wagstaff said the Bill represented a new era for workers’ rights.
“We need to introduce a new industry floor – like most other countries have. We need to protect
working people from being pitted against each other. Businesses in New Zealand are addicted to cheap labour and addicted to a business model that harms workers.
“That is about to change.”
Workplace Relations Minister Michael Wood said Fair Pay Agreements were about valuing the work that people do in Aotearoa.
“Everything that’s produced in country – it requires the employer and employee to come together. It is only fair that workers are at the table in this discussion.”
Speaking to the workers at the event, Wood said “we need to ensure that what you do is once again valued. We’re turning back on 30 years of people being left out of the system.”
Working people from various unions spoke about how this Bill would change their lives.
Fast-food worker and Unite union member Henry Stephenson said his day-to-day life was about
surviving a race to the bottom.
“Long hours for low pay do not produce happy or productive members of society.”
Security worker and E tū member Rosey Ngakopu said FPAs represented an opportunity for workers to create better lives for themselves.
“I believe FPAs will reset a lot of the industry issues that we face.”
ECE teacher and NZEI member Catherine Vaughan said an FPA was desperately needed in her sector.
“This crisis directly affects our tamariki. We all deserve to be valued equally. FPAs will help make this a reality.”
Bus driver and Tramways Union member Morris Dawson said that working people must stand
together.
“As shift workers we need downtime, and time with our families. Overwork becomes a safety issue for bus drivers.”
The Fair Pay Agreement Bill is expected to pass its second reading in Parliament this afternoon.
