THE BUILDING CODE

SITE ALLOWANCE IS BACK!
Thanks to the the hard work of members, Delegates and Officials of the CFMEU, Site Allowance is back in the paypackets of workers in many sectors. If you work in formwork, steelfixing, painting or bricklaying, you should start receiving a pay rise from 1 July 2015. Some sectors will follow.

STOP THE ABCC
The ABCC has even more power than the police. It can drag workers before secret tribunals, strip them of their right to silence and deny them the right to choose a lawyer. If you refuse to attend a tribunal, you can be jailed for up to six months. Under this law, ice dealers will have even more rights than construction workers.
