Northland petroleum tanker drivers at Toll Carriers are back on the job after successfully achieving a collective
agreement and pay rise.

FIRST Union organiser Jared Abbott said that workers were happy with the settlement and were looking forward to getting
back to work.
“In the end the workers were happy to achieve a new collective agreement that included a decent wage increase.”
Jared Abbott said the workers were very thankful for all the local and international community support they had received
over the past month.
