FREO LEISURE CENTRE STAFF LOSE JOBS

A regular reader of this blog emailed me to say he just found out that all staff of the Fremantle Leisure Centre will lose their job because of the development there that will take up to seven months to complete.

I am not sure how major the works at the pool are and why it has to take so long, but why staff would lose their jobs over it is unfair to them. I hope some union will look into this and see how the staff can be protected.

UPDATE: Fremantle Mayor Dr Brad Pettitt emailed me to say that only casual staff will lose their jobs but permanent staff will be redeployed.
