公平工作监察员起诉CFMEU及其两名官员Joel Shackleton和Gerry McCrudden,指控他们威胁和恐吓土著拥有的劳工雇佣公司Marda Dandhi的业主,阻止其进入维多利亚州的主要建筑项目。 The Fair Work Ombudsman has sued the CFMEU and two of its officials, Joel Shackleton and Gerry McCrudden, over allegations of threatening and intimidating the owners of Marda Dandhi, an Indigenous-owned labour hire firm, to block its access to major Victorian construction projects. 本案源于2021年7月至2022年3月之间据称的胁迫行为,包括口头威胁、恐吓和虚假陈述,是监督员首次对工会官员在州政府所在地的这种行为采取法律行动。 The case, stemming from alleged coercive conduct between July 2021 and March 2022, including verbal threats, intimidation, and false statements, is the first time the watchdog has pursued legal action against union officials for such behavior on state government sites. 妇女联合会声称,这些行动违反了工作场所法律,针对的是公司经营和谈判协议的权利。 The FWO claims the actions violated workplace laws by targeting the company’s right to operate and negotiate agreements. 对工会违反规定者,处罚可达66 600美元,对个人违反规定者可达13 320美元。 Penalties could reach $66,600 per breach for the union and $13,320 per violation for individuals. 该案沿用了以往对CFMEU提起的法律诉讼,包括针对前官员John Setka提起的诉讼,强调不断审查重大基础设施项目中的工会行为。 The case follows previous legal actions against the CFMEU, including against former official John Setka, and underscores ongoing scrutiny of union conduct in major infrastructure projects.
