Over the Easter and Anzac Day public holidays, construction sites across Queensland will shut down for up to 10 consecutive days.
The National Construction Union said it had grouped rostered days off around public holidays “at the insistence of employers,” however, the Master Builders Australia group that represents employers have accused the union of bullying to get its way.
Along with Queensland, construction sites all over Australia will close for the holidays with those in New South Wales closing for seven days and Victoria and Tasmania for ten.
