Empower yourself, secure your future and join us.
Proud to deliver our members the best safety standards, fair wages, conditions and insurances.
Union members earn at least 20% more than non-union members on average.
With a strong history of fighting to win, we will always fight for what is right, to protect you at work and secure your future.
Led by an executive team who all have a rich history of working on sites. They are union people, not ALP hacks or politicians.
It is our duty to serve our members and respect the work you do.
Our union has been under constant attack, but we have managed to move forward and campaign against repressive regimes and laws. We will not stop fighting to make sure the next generation, and the next continue to inherit a better future.
Always remember this is your union, in fact, you are the union. Every member has a voice!
