AREEA has slammed the first co-ordinated industrial action by the recently merged construction and maritime unions as “illegal, irresponsible, damaging and reckless”. In this article published in The Australian, AREEA Chief Executive Steve Knott said action by the CFMMEU outlined the immediate and damaging impacts on the economy, the community and our international reputation as a reliable place to invest and do business. “It’s a stark reality check for anyone who believed the unions’ assurances that it would not lead to this type of co-ordinated industrial action,”he said.
