SUNSHINE COAST & WIDE BAY

Looks like the next couple years are going to be busy in the construction and power industries There are multiple projects that could possibly run at same time, overlapping each other at different stages. The biggest one will be the pumped hydro project at Borumba Dam near Imbil This will be a massive project and will take a few years of preliminary work before requiring electricians.

As this is a state government project, the best rates of pay and conditions will apply, due to the combined unions negotiating Best Practice Industry Conditions (BPICs) If you haven’t heard of BPICs, it is definitely worth doing a Google search and having a read

The state government is also building new hospitals in Bundaberg and Redcliffe They have started preliminary works at Bundaberg and some preliminary works have started at Torbanlee for the new train-building facility that will build trains for the Olympics So there is a lot of work coming to our region that the state government is funding
