35° C, That’s Enough - CFMEU hot weather policy
CFMEU EBAs state that workers will stop work and leave site when the temperature reaches 35 degrees.
The temperature is measured at the nearest Bureau of Meteorology weather station to the work site. For info see www.bom.gov.au/vic/observations/melbourne.shtml
Take Action
OHS reps should not wait until the temperature reaches 35° to act.
Great Win for Grocon workers
The CFMEU welcomes Grocon's decision today to abandon its attemp to ram through an EBA "agreement" and mislead workers (Friday January 20 2012).
