Dear Premier Minns,

I am writing as a concerned construction industry participant in New South Wales to express my deep concerns regarding the new CFMEU Enterprise Bargaining Agreement (EBA) and its implications for the construction industry in our State.

This Agreement, in its current form, poses significant challenges that warrant your immediate attention and action.

As you are no doubt aware, we have seen in the media the level of union control on some building sites and this EBA will just make things worse.

The new CFMEU EBA places builders and subcontractors under increased union control, significantly limiting their autonomy and decision-making power on projects.

The union will gain greater influence over who can work on projects, freezing out non-union subcontractors and imposing penalties for the use of legitimate independent contractors.

Businesses and workers in NSW must have their freedom of association principles protected.

The cost of this EBA on construction projects is severe with independent modelling showing at least a 20 per cent increase.

In the middle of a cost of living and housing crisis, these costs have no productivity offsets and will drive some businesses to the wall.

Builders and subcontractors continue to face pressure to sign this pattern EBA with some feeling they have no other option. Enough is enough.

We respectfully request your intervention to address these critical issues and to ensure that the construction industry in New South Wales remains fair, competitive, and sustainable.

Your leadership on this matter is crucial to protect the viability of the building and construction industry to deliver safe and cost-effective infrastructure and housing in NSW.

Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. We look forward to your prompt action and support.

Yours sincerely,
[YOUR_NAME]
