Millicent mill in negotiations over pay

Management are not making any public comment on the likelihood of a pay rise for 300 members of blue and white-collar unions at the Kimberly-Clark Australia Millicent Mill.

The SE Voice understands the employees are seeking a 9% increase which equates to an annual pay rise of 3% for the coming three years.

The previous two-year enterprise bargaining agreement expired at the end of 2020 and it was “rolled over” for a further 12 months on similar terms with the consent of all parties.

The SE Voice has repeatedly sought comment from KCA management on the latest pay deal.

Sydney-based KCA communications and government relations director Annelise Tregoning said no update was available at this time.

The interests of about 300 workers at the Millicent Mill are represented by three different unions.

The remaining 100 workers are either contractors or KCA staff.
