To cover the $17 million cost of the pay increases, Toyota put a proposal to its manufacturing workers late last year to cut back the three-week compulsory Christmas shutdown, cut down on long weekend sickies and blood-bank rorts, excessive overtime, and shift loadings.

   To say that Toyota was dismayed would be an understatement

Ford had signalled it would pull out of local production in 2016, and General Motors-Holden was girding its loins for a similar announcement. Local production of Toyota's next generation Camry – and its larger Aurion spinoff – was up for grabs after the current model ran out in 2017. Toyota Motor Corp was due to make the crucial decision this year.

In the circumstances, you'd think the Toyota workers and the Australian Manufacturing Workers' Union would play ball.
