“At this moment, more than 50,000 Western Australian FIFO workers are effectively not covered by the State workplace safety regime while they are in accommodation villages. “Camps should be a place where workers can relax and unwind after long hours of hard work. They should feel like communities not prisons.” “We are calling for sensible minimum standards across the FIFO industry so we can eliminate the worst excesses of company control in work camps.” - State Secretary Steve McCartney
