This book studies the Sydney (Lidcombe) branch of Australia's CFMEU
in an attempt to document and critique its branch level strategy in
the year immediately after the removal of the Howard-Costello
Government, i.e. November 2007 to November 2008. This ?transitional
time?, prior to the Rudd-Gillard Government releasing its own plans
for workplace relations, was a time of excitement and anticipation
in union offices and building sites across the country as people
perceived that the balance of power between labour and capital had
changed. However, industry participants remained unsure of exactly
how far the new government would go in dismantling the repressive
workplace laws of its predecessor. CFMEU strategy at the Sydney
branch level revolved around a program of ?rebuilding influence' on
the building sites. We also document CFMEU strategy in relation to
immigrant worker issues, as revealed through several micro-cases,
and offer some observations as to how effective the CFMEU's actions
were in each case.
