A fair days work...

Members of the notoriously corrupt Construction Division of Victoria's CFMEU are blockading construction work on the re-development of the Royal Childrens Hospital, Melbourne.

The dispute arose from management's introduction of a swipe card system to stop this:

With the blessing and sanction of the union, it is alleged that workers were pretending to be present at the site while spending time at a nearby pub for hours and hours, day after day. It’s a huge site and management clearly were having issues keeping track of all the workers.

Makes you wonder why the ALP wants to abolish the Australian Building and Construction Commission by 2010.

A fair day's work for a fair day's pay this isn't.
