Convenio sobre los representantes de los trabajadores, 1971 (núm. 135) - Australia (Ratificación : 1993)

In its previous comment, the Committee requested the Government to reply to the observations by the Australian Council of Trade Unions (ACTU) that the Fair Work Amendment Bill 2014 would restrict access to the workplace and limit the capacity of trade union representatives to effectively represent workers. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that the Fair Work Amendment Bill passed both Houses of Parliament and received royal assent in November 2015 and does not include amendments to the right of entry framework. Other matters related to the Fair Work Act and the legislation and code concerning the building and construction industry are being considered under the Right to Organise and Collective Bargaining Convention, 1949 (No. 98).
