The Victorian CFMEU has overwhelmingly backed a new Enterprise Bargaining Agreement as controversial state secretary John Setka addressed union members for the final time.

'Not enough Ford Rangers': CFMEU backs new EBA with 20 per cent pay rise as John Setka addresses members for final time

The new EBA was passed on a voice vote after multiple union members got up to endorse the agreement, which contains a 21 per cent pay rise over four years, a 36-hour work week, and benefits ranging from funeral cover to miscarriage insurance. “20 per cent f***ing pay rise. There's not enough Ford Rangers in the f***ing country. First-year apprentices are going to get Raptors. God bless the CFMEU.”

“We've got a lot of shit in the media, as a union, myself personally, all the rest of them. This is not about any of us. This is about you.
