IT is official. After months of speculation Unions WA
secretary Stephanie Mayman has been appointed a Western Australian Industrial
Relations Commissioner.
Ms Mayman, who is retiring from her UnionsWA post, will fill
a vacancy on the WAIRC left by Tony Beech who took over as chief commissioner
following the retirement of long-time chief commissioner Bill Coleman.
She has worked within the union movement for more than 20
years and took the top UnionsWA job in 2001.
Dave Robinson, who has worked as Ms Mayman’s deputy, will
take the secretary’s position.
Mr Robinson has an 18 year career in the union movement.
