Union backs labour agreement!!! Having failed in its first application for a labour agreement 18 months ago, “ethno-specific” aged care provider Fronditha Care has now been given the green light to sponsor 60 overseas personal care workers in the first such agreement to be struck with the Federal Government, according to a report by the Australian Ageing Agenda. The three-year labour agreement, which had union backing, will allow the Victorian provider to recruit Greek-speaking care workers under the same wages and conditions as local employees.Under the terms of the deal, the overseas workers will need to have a Cert III in Aged Care attained locally and an English language competency of 5 in the International English Language Testing System (IELTS).
