CFMEU subcontractor push 'threatens project delays, costs'

The construction union has warned hundreds of NSW subcontractors that it will soon be enforcing a controversial new rostered-days-off calendar that will effectively shut down projects every second Monday, even though no major builder has signed on to it.

The Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union on Monday notified subcontractors covered by its new enterprise agreement that it would report to the building industry watchdog any of them that had not introduced its fixed RDOs by December.
