"We need the support of CFMEU activists and volunteers."
 

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

Trade Unions and in particular the CFMEU are under attack.

Big business and conservatives do not like strong trade unions that oppose and resist their anti-worker agenda.

The previous Howard Government spent $60 million on a Royal Commission trying to bust the CFMEU. They also allocated over $100 million to the Australian Building & Construction Commission (ABCC) and its Taskforce to attack CFMEU influence on Australian building sites.

Despite a Rudd Labor Government winning in 2007, this struggle continues, because the ABCC is still in place, and the new Federal Government plans to leave it in place until 2010 – leaving our members with continued threats of interrogation, possible fines and even jailing if they do not comply with the ABCC’s Taskforce.

We need the support of CFMEU activists and volunteers.

If you or your mates, or even family members, want some work experience you can contact our Media Officer - Saffron Howden via email or phone her on PH 9749 0405 and work as a volunteer.

The CFMEU maintains a Union Activist Register - a contact list to keep union activists and CFMEU supporters informed of union supported activities. It is a “what’s on” type email diary which focuses on major union and political events.

If you would like to be kept up-to-date with what is going on in the CFMEU and broader trade union/political movement please fill in the form below indicating the categories you are most interested in.
 

 

Sign on & pledge your support so we can:

* Stand up for our right to a decent standard of living

* Support the right of all workers to organise and bargain collectively

* Fight for secure, decent jobs in the face of corporate attacks on working people and our communities

* Organise those not in unions to take action to secure a better economic future for all of us

* Mobilise those already organised in unions to join the fight for economic and social justice

For more info contact:
our counter organiser on
(02) 9749 0405 or contact Saffron Howden via email.
