Angry and demoralised Brisbane City Council IT workers who will lose their jobs to an Indian company will protest at Tuesday’s Council meeting to let councillors know their ‘‘true feelings’’.

Brisbane City Council confirmed on Thursday it would outsource 55 IT jobs to HCL, an IT company based in India.

The final decision will be taken at Tuesday’s full Brisbane City Council meeting.

Australian Services Union branch secretary Jennifer Thomas said the IT staff were ‘‘absolutely demoralised’’ after learning most of the 55 workers would lose their jobs.
