Sydney ferry services face disruption during this weekend's Vivid festival after maritime unions voted to take industrial action that Transport Minister Gladys Berejiklian has branded ''disgraceful''.

Ferry workers will refuse to sell or collect tickets on Saturday and Sunday between 6pm and 10pm on all Sydney services. For Manly ferries the action will take place between 6pm and 3am.

Fewer services will operate at the weekend due to overtime bans, while workers will refuse to help with charter services organised to deal with Vivid crowds. They will also refuse to operate the lights on Vivid ferry services between 7pm and 7.30pm.

The action follows a breakdown in pay negotiations between the Maritime Union of Australia (MUA), the Australian Institute of Marine and Power Engineers and the private operator, Harbour City Ferries.

The union has rejected a 9 per cent pay increase over four years and a proposal it says would see deckhands have their weekly pay cut by $500.
