AREEA welcomed the Coalition’s federal election victory, taking aim at the Labor Party for its “divisive class warfare rhetoric” in this Australian Mining article.

“AREEA is delighted the Australian people have voted for aspiration, not the Australian Labor Party/Australian Council of Trade Unions’ phony industrial relations policies aimed at pitting workers against employers,” AREEA chief executive Steve Knott said.

AREEA further encouraged the government to pursue improvements to the workplace relations system.
