CENTRAL Queensland coal miner Darrell Ziebell says he's been sacked after 44 years' service.
Darrell, 60, said he was shown the door by management at Anglo Coal's Dawson Mine, Moura, on Friday.
He said his problems stemmed from injuries he suffered in the workplace after driving an allegedly defective water truck on "abysmal roads".
He claims the company had him removed from WorkCover, then axed him with a $2000 once-off payment to assist with future training or education.
Darrell yesterday said he and other long-term miners, who were at the site before Anglo took control, had been singled out - a point strongly rejected by the company.
