The Australian Building & Construction Commission alleges that a blockade organised by three Construction, Forestry, Mining & Energy Union representatives in May 2017 breached workplace laws. The ABCC’s legal action contends that the blockade of two Melbourne construction sites constituted a breach of the unlawful picketing provisions of the Building and Construction Industry (Improving Productivity) Act. The union representatives claimed that they had prevented workers from accessing the site on a designated rostered day off.
