The ACTU has a policy on global warming, which can be downloaded as a PDF here: ACTU Global Warming Policy

The policy outlines some fundamental principles supporting workers' engagement and action on global warming, specifically:

Right to participate: Workers have the right to participate in decision making related to environmental concerns in their workplace, exercised through the joint health and safety committee or workplace safety and health representatives, or through new environmental committees.

Right-to-know: Workers have the right to be aware about the environmental hazards in the workplace. i.e. the right to know about workplace emissions, technological choices, plans for energy saving, use and efficiency.

Whistleblower protection: A worker may not be held liable or be disciplined for reporting workplace practices that are honestly believed to pose an environmental risk.

Right to refuse dangerous work: A worker may not be held liable or be disciplined for refusing to perform work that he/she honestly believes may pose an immediate or serious threat to his or other workers' health.

Right to refuse work which harms the environment: A worker may not be held liable or be disciplined for refusing to do work that he/she honestly believes may pose an immediate or serious threat to the environment.
