Construction Update: Unfortunately it is with great dismay that the construction industry will close for a period of two weeks as of 11:59pm (Tonight), Monday 20th September 2021.
We appreciate your patience and support during these unprecedented times.
We have just finished a meeting with the Treasurer, Tim Pallas, together with Minister Pakula and Minister Allan – and we are sending this message ahead of any formal announcement.
The Victorian Government has advised us that, as they are continuing to see an increase in COVID-19 transmissions in the building and construction industry, combined with the riots in Melbourne today, all building and construction industry worksites (includes all residential and commercial sites) in Metropolitan Melbourne, Geelong, Surf Coast, Ballarat and the Mitchell Shire must close for a 2-week period from 11.59pm tonight, Monday 20 September 2021.
Whilst the period is set for 2-weeks, the restrictions will only be in force until each of those local government areas are in restrictions for.
Detailed information will be sent to members very soon - please check your inbox.
