Construction Accidents: Construction Workers Stage Mass Resignation

Citing unsafe workplaces, low pay and intimidation by managers, a group of Australian construction workers has staged a mass resignation to protest their working conditions.

Construction Workers Resign in Protest

The construction workers, who are employed by Coles Myer and were hired through Busicom Solutions, are complaining that they are paid at least ASD $10 less than standard wages, face major on-site safety issues, and have been dismissed for so much as suggesting their workplace lavatories were unclean. The protest stopped up the parent company's delivery trucks for at least four hours and is ongoing.
