CIJC Launch New Website for Working Rule Agreement

THE EMPLOYER’S GROUP of the Construction Industry Joint Council (CIJC) has today launched a new website for its working rule agreement.

The CIJC website is inaugurated in partnership with Construction Industry Publications Limited. It provides guidance on terms and conditions of employment, including current national minimum rates of pay for those working in the building and civil engineering industry.

Steve Smith, Secretary to the Employers Group said: “We hope that this website will provide employers and operatives with up-to-date information about the agreement.  Over the past 18 months we have seen how important it is to be able to update all those covered by the Agreement quickly, as the industry worked to maintain a safe and productive work environment during some very difficult times.  The website will allow us in the future to respond in a much more agile way to the needs of the industry.”

Working Rule Agreement

The launch of the website is part of a drive to modernise the agreement and provide cost free access to the Agreement to employers, employer organisations, those working in the industry and trade unions representing those working in the industry.

Alasdair Reisner, Chief Executive of CECA said “The Civil Engineering Contractors Association welcomes the launch of the CIJC website. Access to the Working Rule Agreement and the ability to raise questions and seek guidance is welcomed by our member companies.”
