利克斯溪矿山的煤炭罢工继续以工资和事故赔偿为目的, A coal strike at Rix’s Creek mine continues over pay and accident compensation, with no resolution in sight.

自2025年9月29日起,随着Bloomfield集团和采矿与能源联盟仍然对一项新的企业协议有分歧,Rix在Sinton附近的Creek煤矿的工业行动仍在继续。 Industrial action at Rix’s Creek coal mine near Singleton, starting September 29, 2025, continues as the Bloomfield Group and the Mining and Energy Union remain at odds over a new enterprise agreement. 工会拒绝四年内增加16.75%工资的提议,认为工人个人支付费用的事故工资做法不公平,与其他矿井不同。 The union rejected a proposed 16.75% pay rise over four years, citing unfair accident pay practices where workers cover costs personally, unlike at other mines. Bloomfield称这项提议具有竞争力,并强调在煤炭价格不断下跌的情况下可持续性,警告说,由于工会可能向罢工者提供财政支持,它可能会重新评估业务。 Bloomfield calls the offer competitive and stresses sustainability amid declining coal prices, warning it may reassess operations due to potential union financial support for strikers. 预计罢工至少将持续至10月17日。 The strike is expected to continue at least through October 17.
