National negotiations have concluded between the SDA and Coles Supermarkets on the proposed Coles Enterprise Agreement. Meeting of Shop Stewards will be held today in seven different locations ranging from Rockhampton to the Gold Coast to hear extensive reports on the negotiations from SDA Officials including SDA Branch Secretary, Chris Ketter.

Meetings will then be held in the stores over the coming weeks. All SDA members will be invited to these meetings to hear reports on the proposed Enterprise Agreement from SDA Organisers and Shop Stewards. This is the opportunity for members to ask questions and dicuss the proposed agreement.

Once these meetings are concluded across the State voting will commence and the result of the nationwide secret ballot will be known in late June/early July.
