Sandy Boyle - I'm in the Union

Sandy is a stevedore. Patrick/Toll Port Botany.

Sandy has been a Union member since her first day 7 years ago.
She is 31 years old and her skills include Straddle Driving and Portainer Crane Operator.

There is only 8 Women at her workplace and she looks forward to a day when there will be more.

Sandy admires her Mum "because she is an inspiration to all who know her, she is a legend!" and also Margaret Whitlam as "she is a great advocate for the 'underdog' and she had done a great deal for Women."
