Find Trade Union expertise in Australia
Formed in 1927, the largest trade union, Australian Council of Trade Unions (ACTU) -which accommodates 45 affiliated unions – was established by extremist and revolutionary trade unions to avoid forming one great union. Australia hosts the 120-year-old Transport Workers’ Union (TWU) and also the Construction, Forestry, Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU), the main trade union in construction, forestry and forest products, mining and energy production.
