The crosses are a sad symbol of those killed in truck crashes in the twelve months since the National Transport Commission criticised:
- LOW RATES OF PAY
- INCENTIVE-BASED PAYMENT METHODS (SUCH AS PER KILOMETRE OR PER TRIP)
- UNPAID WORKING TIME AND DEMURRAGE
- THE HYPER-COMPETITIVE NATURE OF THE INDUSTRY AND
- THE LOW BARGAINING POWER FACED BY DRIVERS
ECONOMIC PRESSURE COSTS LIVES
The TWU will never forgo its responsibility to the public and its members to fight for a safer transport industry.
