CFMEU CELEBRATES .....

VICTORY FOR BARRY HEMSWORTH

You are invited to join the reinstatement celebrations for sacked CFMEU delegate Barry Hemsworth. After an epic fight against unfair dismissal laws, maintaining an extraordinary vigil for over a year, Barry has won reinstatement.

Barry Hemsworth was sacked on September 6th 2006 after 10 years of employment with Botany Cranes. Barry refused to accept the sack and picketed the front gate of his crane company for 1 year. He then spent 3 months visiting every major building site in Sydney campaigning against Howards anti-worker laws.

Barry will be reinstated on Thursday November 29th at Botany Cranes.

This is an outstanding victory for all workers. I thank the CFMEU for all its support and encouragement and the broader labour movement. In unity is strength. - Barry Hemsworth.
