Construction workers deserve the same rights as other workers

Under the previous Liberal and National government construction workers and their employers were subject to restrictions that don’t apply to workers in other industries.

Today I announced the Albanese Labor Government has amended the Building Code as another step toward ending the unfair treatment of construction workers.

The next step is abolishing the ABCC altogether.

Here's what I had to say on ABC Insiders about our amendment to the Building Code.
