If you have been randomly selected by the ACE-S team to participate in the Australian Coal and Energy Survey (ACE-S), and haven’t sent back your completed questionnaires, please don’t forget to do so now.
The survey is well under way. Members from across Australia are using the opportunity to give us their feedback on how work conditions are effecting them and their families—both positively and negatively.
ACE-S is funded by the Australian Research Council and the CFMEU-Mining, and is being conducted independently by a team of experts from Griffith University.  The research team are keen to make the results as representative of the views of the membership as possible, and THERE IS STILL TIME to send your views in.
As an incentive, the team are holding a LATE ENTRY BONUS IPAD DRAW for those of you who don’t make the first prize draw deadline as well as a second chance for those of you who do make it in time for the first draw.  (Results of the first draw, drawn on November 30th, which feature two iPad prizes, one for members and one for members’ partners. This will be announced shortly).   But just as important is  the survey this is your chance to make your views heard at a national level.
