Interesting what WLC offered to pay workers:

"Wollongong Coal proposed they work for $21 an hour and slashed other provisions such as accident pay and annual leave entitlements."

So much for the old reputation of mining workers being rich and buying toys! They would be flat out paying mortgage payments with that. A commenter adds what the miners were asked to concede:

"hey were not asked to take a pay cut, they were asked to take a pay cut, surrender holidays, superannuation, carers leave, sick leave and overtime."

Wow!
