The Metro Trains Melbourne Infrastructure Enterprise Agreement 2019 (MTMIEA 2019) is a recent agreement signed between Metro Trains Melbourne (MTM) and the Rail, Tram & Bus Union (RTBU). The agreement sets out the terms and conditions of employment for MTM employees involved in the maintenance and infrastructure of Melbourne`s metropolitan train network.

Under this agreement, MTM employees will receive a 2% pay increase each year for the next four years. In addition, there will be changes to rosters and staffing levels, designed to improve the efficiency and reliability of Melbourne`s train network.

One of the key elements of the MTMIEA 2019 is the focus on safety. MTM and the RTBU have worked together to create a new safety framework, which includes mandatory safety training for all MTM employees, as well as the establishment of a Joint Safety Committee to oversee safety issues across the network.

The agreement also includes provisions for improved career development and training opportunities for MTM employees. This will help to upskill the workforce and ensure that MTM has the best possible team in place to operate and maintain Melbourne`s train network.

In addition to the provisions outlined above, the MTMIEA 2019 also includes measures to improve job security for MTM employees, as well as improvements to annual leave and other entitlements.

Overall, the MTMIEA 2019 is a positive step forward for both MTM employees and Melbourne`s train network. By addressing key issues such as safety, training, and job security, this agreement will help to ensure that MTM is able to continue providing a high level of service to Melbourne`s commuters for years to come.
