| Following a big win at the FWC in just the last few weeks, the TWU have been back, standing up for unfairly treated workers. We have more to say on this below. This week, I’ve also been at NCOM – meeting with senior officials from across the nation as we discuss strategy for our roads, our skies and our future heading towards 26. With an unprecedented number of EAs up in 2026, we’re at the face of one of the biggest fights in TWU history. You may have noticed delegates and officials talking more about 2026 in recent weeks. |
| If you’re still not familiar with the fight for 2026, reach out to your delegate or official. As a union, we’re all standing for fairness, better pay and conditions. Likewise, if you need to get in touch with the union on any other matter, please reach out to us via email at info@twunsw.org.au It has been great to see so many members at yards, and welcome so many to ours these last few weeks, particularly for training. We’re proud to host frequent training sessions, and to see new Health and Safety Representatives go out to make their workplaces safer. |
TWU Holding Boral To Account
Recently, many members from Boral were blindsighted by the company’s decision to outsource half of their workforce, leading to redundancies – in spite of consultation obligations.
Chief Legal Officer Gavin Webb recently joined Official Craig and Boral Concrete Driver Delegate Matt in standing up for Boral workers who were recently made redundant at the FWC.
Thanks to our dispute procedure and the FWC, the union is working towards positive outcomes for all affected members. The TWU will share further updates as they become available.
State Secretary Richard Olsen says,
“We’re working to hold Boral to account over their disgraceful decision to outsource half of their employees and make them redundant. Gavin is doing a great job at making sure we get an outcome in-line with their obligations.”
