---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Workers memorial to be built in Canberra
Senator Doug Cameron, ex AMWU National Secretary, has announced he is chairing a committee of the Federal parliament which will guide the establishment of a National Workers’ Memorial in Canberra.
"I believe that a memorial dedicated to the memory of all Australian workers who have been killed in the workplace or as a result of diseases contracted in the workplace is long overdue," Senator Cameron said.
See OHS Alerts and Issues page for Senator Cameron's media release.
