Australia union says some workers to begin strike action at Woodside's LNG plants
Unionized workers at major liquefied natural gas facilities operated by contractors for Woodside Energy announced plans to begin protected strike action next week. Workers say the dispute is rooted in wage concerns and allegations that contractors are relying on outside labor to suppress pay and weaken bargaining power. The case reflects ongoing tensions in Australia’s energy sector over labor standards in large industrial projects.
