This week, in response to the CFMEU's Stop This Killer Stone campaign, the federal and state governments took a major step towards prohibiting engineered stone. But we will not rest until it's illegal to import and manufacture engineered stone in Australia.
#StopThisKillerStone
We did it!
Federal, state and territory WHS Ministers just voted to ban engineered stone from 1 July 2024.
This has happened because our union turned out. We set a date to ban it on our sites, rallied, and campaigned to the public outside big retail stores. #StopThisKillerStone
