flag Cash delivery workers in Australia began a strike over pay and safety, disrupting services ahead of major racing events.

flag Cash delivery workers from Armaguard, Prosegur, and Point-to-Point, represented by the Transport Workers Union, began a four-day strike on October 24, 2025, over pay, safety, and job security, disrupting cash deliveries ahead of Australia’s spring racing carnival in Victoria and Tasmania. flag Workers, some carrying firearms, say they haven’t received a pay rise in five years despite inflation and rising risks. flag The companies, owned by Lindsay Fox’s Linfox, have not responded publicly. flag The union plans potential further action on November 3, the day before the Melbourne Cup. flag While the Australian Banking Association and major retailers say cash access remains available, the strike highlights ongoing concerns about the reliability of cash distribution despite physical cash making up just 13% of transactions in 2023.
