Updated 31 October 2026. WWTG sought comment from SCT Logistics on 29 October, with a response requested by 3pm AEST on 30 October. No reply had been received by that deadline or by this update. SCT’s position on the allegations has not been established; any subsequent response will be considered.
Transport Workers’ Union (TWU) members at SCT Logistics’ Forrestfield facility in Western Australia began a 24-hour period of protected industrial action on Thursday 29 October, according to the union and contemporary reporting. The union’s original notice gave a planned 4am AWST start.
The TWU said workers planned a rally on Beyer Place at 5.30am and described the action as part of an enterprise bargaining dispute following eight negotiation meetings.
Workers are seeking improved pay, a pathway to 15 per cent superannuation and arrangements to protect income when rail operations are disrupted, the union said.
The union has also alleged bullying, adverse treatment and unpaid stand-downs. These are allegations, not established findings. SCT Logistics’ response has not yet been obtained.
Neither the number of employees participating nor any effect on train services, warehouse operations, freight customers or delivery times has been independently established.
What remains unverified: WWTG has not independently established the number of participating workers, the precise operational impact or the parties’ current bargaining positions. The TWU describes the action as protected industrial action; WWTG has not independently examined the applicable Fair Work Commission documents. The company’s response has been sought but not received.
