International Transport Unions Target TNT Logistics
Recently, I had written a post titled “TNT Logistics Opens Regional Distribution Center” that focused on the new regional distribution center opened by TNT Logistics. Now the company has been involved in a major controversy. Transport unions from the UK and Australia are starting a campaign aimed at customers of TNT Logistics before its sale by Dutch parent TNT NV. The Transport Workers Union (TWU) of Australia is supported by Britain’s Transport and General Workers Union (TGWU).
According to them, TNT is refusing to meet with them for a discussion about the company’s future. The company has refused to consult with its unions in the UK and elsewhere about the sale of Logistics Operations and the impact it could have on safe operating systems and job security as well as on pay, pensions and other key conditions of employment.
