Offshore divers secure substantial pay increase

OFFSHORE divers have secured a substantial pay increase of nearly 25 per cent, their union RMT announced today.
The three-year deal was backed by nearly 90 per cent of more than 800 members who are working under the Offshore Diving Industry Agreement (ODIA).
It represents a 15 per cent uplift from May, a 4.5 per cent increase in 2025, and another 4.5 per cent in 2026.
