Simplified outline of this Chapter

Anyone can apply for an injunction under this Chapter to restrain a person from organising or engaging in unlawful industrial action or an unlawful picket that relates to building work. The unlawful industrial action or picket must also relate to a constitutionally-covered entity (such as if the action is taken by or against a constitutionally-covered entity).

Unlawful industrial action includes bans on working, employees failing to attend work and employers locking out employees.

The provisions of the FW Act relating to strike pay also apply in relation to unlawful industrial action.
