The Civil Contractors Federation (CCF) is pleased to have been appointed to the National Construction Industry Forum to provide advice to the Government on a broad range of issues relating to work in the building and construction industry, including safety, workplace relations, skills and training, industry culture, diversity and gender equity, and productivity.
CCF members, who operate across every city, town, and community in Australia, play a critical role in delivering the nation’s infrastructure. Our role in this tripartite forum is recognised as being central to addressing the issues the Forum was originally established to tackle.
Appointed representative for the CCF, CEO Nicholas Proud, reflected that the timing of the appointment gives the industry greater confidence that we can work through the challenges confronting the sector, with culture and wellbeing at the heart of the task ahead.
Bringing together all key construction stakeholders must be the starting point for the Government to advance the necessary reforms that are urgently needed.
We believe that constructive participation in this Forum will contribute to a more positive and productive work environment across the industry.
The CCF is committed to supporting efforts that promote fairness, transparency, and integrity within our sector. We look forward to working towards the long-term benefits of these reforms and collaborating to build a stronger future for our industry and its workers.
