Don’t let ‘partial licensing’ reduce safety standards
CFMEU ACT welcomes the decision by Master Builders to drop a short-course in dogging that was designed to by-pass national regulations for licensed dogging in the industry.
“This was the only sensible course of action Master Builders could take, since their course for a ‘partial license’ in dogging does not comply with national safety and training laws, as WorkSafe ACT has pointed out, ” said CFMEU ACT Secretary Dean Hall.
