Workers shielded in rain at Upper Cotter Dam site
An ACT Arbitration Commissioner ruled that employees at the Upper Cotter Dam emergency work must receive suitable protective clothing and six shillings per day when required to work in heavy rain. The decision also covers light rain with protection, while workers may not cease during wet weather when concrete pours or other emergencies occur.
