INTERRUPTION TO AIRPORT SERVICES FROM 29 MARCH 2016 IN AUSTRALIA
Travellers - interruption to airport services from 29 March 2016
The dates for this advice have been updated 23 March 2016.
The Community and Public Sector Union (CPSU) is asking its members, who are employees of the Department of Immigration and Border Protection, to participate in protected industrial action at various international airports from 29 March 2016. While the likely level of participation is unknown, we strongly encourage airline and cruise ship passengers to plan for potential delays by arriving at international airports and cruise ship terminals even earlier. The Department is working closely with stakeholders to minimise the impact on the travelling public, cargo and mail operations. We are also ensuring appropriate contingencies are in place for visa and citizenship services.
See below for detailed information about where and when protected industrial action is planned to occur.
