flag Illawarra teachers, electricians, and skydiving instructors strike over pay, workload, and working conditions.

flag Teachers, electricians, and skydiving instructors in New South Wales’ Illawarra region are on strike over pay and working conditions. flag Electricians in Unanderra have been unpaid for over a month, demanding an 18% raise after their offer was cut from 11.5% to 10.5%. flag Teachers cite insufficient prep time, with a survey showing only 6% feel adequately prepared and 8% report no burnout. flag Skydiving instructors have staged multiple walkouts, including a four-day strike that prompted some to move operations to Newcastle, seeking better pay, improved conditions, and limits on visa workers. flag The actions highlight widespread concerns about fair pay, workload, and job security.
