three weeks ago, has affected __29__ (produce) at the factory. Joe Turner. Managing Director of

Shepparton Carpets has, however, refused to bow to union demands. “If Shepparton Carpets wants to

survive, it has to become more __30__ (compete),” he said. “It’s my responsibility as an __31__

(employ) of over 500 __32__ (employ) to ensure this company continues to make a profit. __33__

(period), we have to make changes to improve efficiency. If we don’t, we’ll all be out of a job. It may

be __34__ (please), but it is essential. Some of the working practices at the factory are, frankly,

me on this rather than fighting me every step of the way.”
