The two-tier workforce began in 1975 when 90-day casuals were booted out of the APWU bargaining unit. It was a self-defeating move. It is now hard to justify having different wages, benefits and work rules for one merged bargaining unit. The APWU contract today is a nightmarish mishmash for someone new.
