Almost 9000 Crown casino workers have received a 5 per cent pay rise under their new private equity owner, driving an end-of-year upsurge in wage rises for collective agreements.
Thousands of Crown casino workers have received a 5 per cent pay rise under their new private equity owner Blackstone, driving an end-of-year upsurge in wages for collective agreements.
The pay rise, approved this month, was the highest in enterprise agreements lodged in the final fortnight of 2022 and lifted the average wage increase under the deals for 51,012 staff to a high of 4.1 per cent a year. “Cost of living and price increases were the No. 1 concern for members so getting a good wage outcome was the most critical thing,” he said.While members are yet to complete claims for the next round of bargaining in April or May, Mr Mujkic said talks would take place in the context of much higher inflation and pay claims were unlikely to be less than 5 per cent – “they might be on the other side”.
Mr Mujkic said the move made sense for the business, which had struggled to get workers to work nights or weekends when they had been paid the same for weekdays.
