Justice for Melbourne Airport cleaners!

Melbourne Airport cleaners employed by IKON have had enough.

Cleaners work back-breaking shifts and are paid poverty wages, while IKON and Melbourne Airport makes mega profits.

IKON Cleaners have reported:

• Wage theft
• Being forced to clean the toilets of the opposite gender while the bathrooms are left open to the public
• Being bullied and intimidated by managers (including being shouted at in front of the travelling public)
• Individual cleaners having to do the work of two or three cleaners because of chronic understaffing
• Unsafe work practices due to a lack of equipment, unreasonable workloads, and lack of care from management (including injured workers not being sent home)
• Racism in the workplace (including mangers blaming low wages on specific races)
• Intimidation and union-busting tactics

IKON managers are even lying to cleaners to protect their profits, telling workers that demands for fair treatment would come at the cost of their jobs.
