UNION officials allegedly superglued padlocks at a Brisbane construction site to stop workers entering during a strike. 
 
Construction workers who tried to get into the South Brisbane building site were verbally abused and their futures in the industry threatened, according to court documents.

Federal regulator Fair Work Building & Construction (FWBC) has taken the Construction, Forestry, Mining and Energy Union to court claiming the union engaged in coercive behaviour.

The allegations arise from a strike at a Queensland government housing project last month.

FWBC claims union officials allegedly used cars to block the entrance to the construction site, which was a 14-level building with 146 apartments, and abused workers who tried to enter.

The matter has been set down for a directions hearing in the Federal Court in Brisbane on May 2.

"allegedly"

Did you change the text in this Union story too (like the one at the link below), or have you left it original?

Oh, so the workers trying to get in weren't threatened with losing their livelihoods and the padlocks weren't glued shut. Nice to know, please inform the  Federal Court so you can save us all a lot of money.
