Join the CEPU
The primary objective of trade Unions has always been the maintenance and improvement of living standards for members and their dependents, those unable to work and those who have retired from the workforce.
Working people recognise the benefits to be gained when a group of people operate collectively to negotiate with employers for improved employment conditions.
Some workers view Union membership as a form of insurance which will provide them with professional representation to remedy a problem either by negotiation with their employer, or before a Fair Work Australia Commissioner or other relevant tribunal.
Value for money
That's what you get from your CEPU Membership
Surveys consistently show better wages and conditions for union members.
It stands to reason that no individual worker standing alone can hope to bargain with an employer on equal footing.
The CEPU ensures that workers combine their strength to speak with one voice.
We also empower workers on the job through extensive training programs to help them:
- Negotiate effectively on behalf of members
- Deal with small issues before they become big ones
- Ensure that decisions are made democratically
- An opportunity to take action with fellow workers in improving wages and conditions
Due to the often dangerous nature of our industry, we also give high priority to training and involvement on occupational health and safety issues.
Workers compensation, superannuation, enterprise bargaining... we are always there to help out.

Don't forget, your CEPU membership dues are tax deductable.
