"The Federal Liberal Government in 2005 banned all project agreements and site allowances"


Site Allowances & Project Agreements

For decades the CFMEU and other building unions negotiated project agreements that provided minimum standards of redundancy and superannuation and made provision for payment of site allowances.

The Federal Liberal Government in 2005 banned all project agreements and site allowances. If any builder or sub-contractor agrees to a site allowances they are banned from working on any building site in Australia.

The CFMEU will be lobbying the newly elected Federal Labor Government to lift this ban, to allow for project agreements and site allowances
