The CEPU national union was forged out of four unions who covered workers in three essential industries: electrical, communication and plumbing. The combined strength of all these workers is the power behind the CEPU national union. Join the fight to defend your work rights.

- Notice to Members of Eligibility Rule Alterations – The attached notice of particulars of alteration to Section A, National Rules of the Union was lodged with the Fair Work Commission for certification on 17 May 2017. As the CEPU is the federal counterpart of the Electrical Trade Union of Employees Queensland (ETUQ), the application is for consent to insert extracts of the ETUQ rules into the Section A CEPU eligibility rules by inserting a new sub-rule 2.2A. The proposed rule allows the relevant workers to be represented by the CEPU in the Federal system and does not extend CEPU’s coverage beyond the eligibility of the ETUQ. This application is made in contemplation of the ending of the transitional recognition of the ETUQ.
