New delegate rights mean a stronger voice for members

2 May, 2024

IEU members will have an even greater voice at work thanks to new workplace delegate provisions in the Fair Work Act. 

IEU-QNT Assistant Secretary/Treasurer Paul Giles said the changes to the Act ensure 

new workplace rights and protections for union delegates.  

“These amendments form the base level of entitlements and protections,” Paul said. 

“Under the new provisions, workplace delegates are entitled to represent the industrial interests of union members or persons eligible to become union members,” he said.
