We know what works. The Australian Building and Construction Commission works. It has been tried and tested. When the ABCC was in force, between 2005 and 2012, the number of days lost to industrial disputes in the construction industry fell significantly. Since its abolition, the rate of disputes are on the rise again. The rate of fatalities and serious injury in the building and construction industry continues to trend downwards in keeping with trends across other industries.
