Oberstown agreement reached
by Bernard Harbor
Industrial action at the Oberstown youth detention centre has been suspended after management reached agreement with IMPACT over safety issues. The outcome will see the two sides agree a list of health and safety issues to be addressed, and sets a three-month timetable to deal with them.
Management has agreed not to proceed with any plans to change rosters or work locations while the process is underway. The Workplace Relations Commission, which brokered the deal, will again become involved if necessary. The two sides will review progress at the beginning of next month.
