Time For Fair Deal For Taylor Preston Workers

"The CTU is strongly supportive of the striking Taylor Preston meat workers in their fight for a fair deal" CTU president Ross Wilson said today.

Meat Workers Union members at Wellingtons Taylor Preston plant will be striking for three days this week in support of their claim for fair pay and conditions.

"Taylor Preston is a company with a reputation for being anti-union and mean and their record over the past decade is an indictment of their millionaire owners." Ross Wilson said.

"These workers have been pushed too far and have overwhelmingly voted to take strike action," Ross Wilson said. "CTU unions and the 350,000 other union members they represent are right behind the Taylor Preston workers."

"The CTU is ready to do anything we can to ensure that these workers get a fair deal."
