This strong result – the second strike mandate in the history of the ITF – comes even after over 40 staff have left the organisation following a mass redundancy program.

Union rep. New parent. Migrant worker. Ryan is one of two union reps abruptly sacked by @itfglobalunion.bsky.social management. ❌ Fired my management decree, contrary to internal procedures ❌ Denied the right to work his notice period, accelerating removal from the country

This differential treatment of union reps follows ITF management's earlier abrupt sackings by decree, contrary to internal policy, and swift termination of their building passes and email access, while other departing staff have retained these privileges.

What in the world are the priorities of @itfglobalunion.bsky.social management? On Wednesday, one of the abruptly terminated reps requested and received permission to attend the office. Upon arrival he was informed he would need to be chaperoned and "collected" from area to area.

Rather than engage in genuine negotiation and follow a realistic timeline, management unveiled 16 new policies and announced a 30-day consultation window to review over 200 pages of draft policies, with another 12 policies to come in March.

After abruptly sacking two union reps, @itfglobalunion.bsky.social management are now trying to tear up the existing CBA with staff. Under the "new CBA" written by management, important protections would be removed or put in non-binding policies.

In October 2025 we called for a fully independent investigator to be appointed. Last week, a panel of three investigators were announced. This is an important step but took far too long, and a number of critical issues remain outstanding.

The recent "State of the Sector" report by the @unionworkersunion.org is important reading. @itfglobalunion.bsky.social staff, like all union staff, want their organisations to live up to their full potential. Voting to take industrial action is a last resort when internal mechanisms fail.
