flag Workers at a Queensland hydro project quit over moldy food and unsafe conditions, halting work.

flag Workers at the Genex Pumped Storage Hydro Project in Queensland, Australia, reported receiving mouldy food and enduring unsanitary living conditions, leading to a stop-work order over health and safety concerns. flag The project, a joint venture between John Holland and McConnell Dowell, faced criticism for unsafe food handling, poor sanitation, and inadequate record-keeping, with a partial audit revealing serious food safety failures. flag A promised full audit was not completed, prompting union demands for workers to be flown home at no cost. flag Genex Power stated worker safety remains a top priority and confirmed that corporate and independent audits will soon begin.
