TWU MEMBER CELEBRATES 60 YEARS OF BEING UNION
Nearly 6 decades ago, a young man called Eric Taylor joined the Transport Workers’ Union after his employer refused to give him a holiday after a year of work. Leaving that job, Mr Taylor began working for John Hannon at Peakhurst, which was unionised and stayed there for 38 years.
Mr Taylor has kept financial for the past 60 years – becoming one of the Union’s longest ever members. Last month Mr Taylor celebrated his 90th Birthday, and was sent a TWU jacket, cap, t-shirt and special certificate for being such a loyal member.
NSW & National Secretary Tony Sheldon: “It’s inspiring to see a member still passionate about his union, 60 years from when he first joined. It’s now more important than ever to be union, and I commend Eric for being a loyal unionist.”
The Transport Workers’ Union wishes Eric Taylor a Happy 90th Birthday, and Congratulates him on 60 years of being TWU.
