Protest against the elimination of 255 high-skill technical jobs at Telstra.
Join a community assembly at the Telstra building, 35 Collins St, Melbourne CBD
Wed 25 January 8:00am – 1:00pm
A new community group called “Enough” has been formed to fight against the outsourcing of jobs at Telstra.
“Enough” has put out a statement saying:
“Telstra is eliminating 255 highly sensitive, high end, highly skilled jobs. These jobs involve government and commercial security, obviously less important to Telstra than the cost of the labour. Telstra workers are being instructed to train the workforce from India, who will replace them. This is not the fault of Indian workers. This is a clear, racist attempt by Telstra to exploit cheaper labour and at the expense of workers here as well as future generations of Australian workers.”
