Building bad: Unpacking the CFMEU saga

Aug 22, 2024

In this special episode of The HR Leader Podcast, produced in partnership with global law firm Dentons, we explore the allegations of corruption, bullying and lawlessness at the Construction, Forestry and Maritime Employees Union (CFMEU), the fallout from recent revelations, and what businesses can and must learn from such workplace relations matters. Host Jerome Doraisamy is joined by Dentons partner Persephone Stuckey-Clarke to discuss her employment and safety practice within the global law firm, why such work is so meaningful for her, the recent allegations levelled against the CFMEU and why they are so significant, the professional and political fallout from such revelations, and why all Australians should care about it. Persephone also delves into the professional and political backstory to the recent allegations and revelations, whether the appointment of an independent administrator is a sufficient response, the need for more effective and stringent legislative and regulatory frameworks, the lessons for businesses across the board, the ever-increasing importance of having the right practices and policies in place within the business, why HR professionals need to be paying close attention to this evolving story.
