Alongside all first responders, ETU lineworkers have a proud tradition of always standing ready to respond to a crisis.
They always have, and they always will.
The ETU categorically refutes the Herald Sun's pathetic allegations; this is gutter journalism at its worst.
ETU members across Victoria have worked night and day to restore power to our state. Work crews across the network were available to respond to outages.
We look forward to working with the Allan Government on practical and straightforward improvements to the practice and the future of the harvest.
We thank the tens of thousands of Victorians who joined the campaign.
The ETU, along with other unions in the broader ORAG team, welcome the Allan Government’s announcement of the continuation of duck and quail season in Victoria.
Our path to cheaper, cleaner energy is electrification.
Today's announcement from @LilyDAmbrosioMP will save households money and reduce our emissions.
Victoria is leading the way in electrifying the nation.
Comrade Bob was a true champion of the working class, fierce in his advocacy for those in our society who have no voice.
His speech to workers at the CUB picket in 2016 about the brotherhood of man winning against corporate greed was priceless.
Vale Father Bob.
I’ve spent most of this week on prepoll with Graeme (aka Watto)
He feels strongly about bringing the SEC back into public hands
He’s also the calmest man in town.
I’m proud to be a @ETUVIC member and to have them side-by-side.
Proud to be union

ETU members at the Spotswood UGL Rail Maintenance Facility supporting Bringing Back the SEC.
Government-owned renewable energy, secure, stable jobs, and guaranteed apprenticeships, all while driving down power prices.
It's time to bring back the SEC.
Down in the Valley where @DanielAndrewsMP announced that a re-elected Labor government would not only re-establish the SEC but also put it in the Victorian Constitution.
Making it harder for the Libs to flog it off - Bloody Good Thing.
Jim. Electrical worker. Big fan of the Vic Gov policy to revive the SEC. Power back into the hands of Victorians - power stations not for profit, for citizens! @ETUVIC
For the proud SEC workers who built and maintained our energy system - it's about more than just electricity.
It's about opportunity for workers, families and communities.
And that's what we'll bring back - power for Victorians, by Victorians.
Provide training and pathways supporting Victorians to get into renewable energy jobs.
All while beginning to rectify one of the biggest mistakes in Victoria's history - Kennett's privatisation of the power industry.
@DanielAndrewsMP And we reckon this a fantastic idea. Good for workers, Good for families and Good for our environment. Thanks to the fantastic leadership of @LilyDAmbrosioMP. We can't wait to get on and work with a re-elected Andrew's government to build a renewable future for all Victorians.
Victoria's Power assets should never have been privatised, workers lost jobs, the power grid has been left to decay, and corporations have made billions.
