CFMEU Vic-Tas

CFMEU Vic-Tas The CFMEU represents 30,000+ construction workers, by protecting lives & improving health and safety The CFMEU never compromises on safety.

Your union covers workers in the construction industry, working on and off building sites. We also have members working in maintenance, the power industry, boiler rooms, oil refineries and more. If you want to be a member of a union that sticks up for workers and isn't afraid to take action, you need to be a member of the CFMEU. The union's successful bargaining campaigns continue to deliver high

wages and better conditions like superannuation, redundancy pay and income protection. In 2000 this branch of the CFMEU won the 36 hour week, giving workers 26 paid days off a year. We back up our workplace health and safety reps and give them the training they need to minimise risks to workers. In construction you enforce your safety rights by being a member of the CFMEU. The CFMEU believes strongly in training. Our accredited training and education unit runs courses in all aspects of construction work as well as first aid and industry induction. The unit also builds up our strength by training shop stewards.

When the Warrnambool RSL Club was doing it tough, union members working on the local hospital project stepped in to help.

They raised more than $10,000 to help keep creditors at bay and the doors open for local veterans.

Since then, our members have supported a local domestic violence shelter and started a toy drive for the Warrnambool Toy Library.

Today we remember legendary trade unionist John โ€˜Cummoโ€™ Cummins, who passed away 20 years ago from a brain tumour.

A much-loved official of the BLF and CFMEU, Cummo was a master strategist and tough negotiator who helped building workers civilise a dangerous and demanding industry.

His legacy lives on through the work of the John Cummins Memorial Fund, which has raised millions to support people diagnosed with brain tumours and create opportunities for disadvantaged young people.

Dare to struggle, dare to win.

The CFMEU Education and Training Centre plays a crucial role in supporting Victoriaโ€™s construction industry, giving apprentices the skills and confidence they need to succeed.

With completion rates above 90%, the unionโ€™s training program works because the trainers recognise young workers need more than just technical instruction.
