Plumbing and Pipe Trades Employees Union (PPTEU)
The Plumbing and Pipetrades Employees Union is one of the fastest growing and most progressive trade unions in Australia. We have a proud history and a strong future and have always led the way in conditions for our members. Our record of protecting workers rights and entitlements since 1850 is second to none. We have been Federally registered since 1912. An important part of this proud Union is the continued protection of our trade licensing/registration systems, that have been under attack since inception.
As a trade Union we have been at the forefront of training and trade development within the trade. Most importantly, our Union has won the rights to vastly improved wages and conditions for our members, through enterprise bargaining agreements, awards and site agreements. We put our members first. We encourage everyone to come along to our general meetings to voice your opinions and have a say in this proud Unions democratic system.
