Unions face damages of up to $1m-a-day over resource project stoppage

The Federal Court on Tuesday will decide whether to maintain an injunction against alleged unlawful industrial action by up to 180 workers on an offshore barge who are building a pipeline for a massive $1.5 billion Woodside resources project in WA's north-west. Unions maintain the stoppage is lawful, as it was a response to reasonable OHS concerns.
