Woolworths is continuing to be impacted by industrial action in Victoria, with customers still being confronted by empty shelves in supermarkets. Negotiations between the supermarket giant and the United Workers Union are continuing.

Operations at one of Woolworths’ key Melbourne distribution centres will resume on Monday, as the supermarket giant tries to fill its empty shelves in the lead up to Christmas.

Shoppers could face empty shelves in the weeks leading up to Christmas as Woolworths warehouse workers continue to strike. The United Workers Union is demanding better safety, pay and equity from the supermarket giant.

Around 200 Woolworths workers are picketing a distribution centre in Melbourne's south-east which the supermarket giant is trying to reopen to ease a shortage of some items at its stores.

Protesters have blocked the reopening of a Woolworths distribution centre as industrial action continues over demands for better pay and conditions.
