where he writes about another food processing company called simplot..
"Simplot’s vast, inefficient plant at Bathurst will now specialise in corn (and Chiko rolls) and operate only in the hours of the day where there are no shift allowances or penalty rates. It is not ideal but it means the plant can produce frozen and processed corn at an economic price. By limiting shift allowances and penalty rate costs they have halved the labour costs at Bathurst. Simplot will not increase pay rates and the deal is subject to workers agreeing to a totally flexible labour force with no labour demarcations." . . .
