Communications, Electrical, Electronic, Energy, Information, Postal, Plumbing and Allied Services Union of Australia (CEPU)

About the CEPU

Organisation type and coverage: a union of employees connected to the communications, electrical, electronic, energy, information, postal, plumbing and allied services industries

Financial year: predominantly 1 April to 31 March, however, some of the divisional branches have a financial year 1 January to 31 December

Date of registration: 24 December 1919

The organisation comprises 3 divisions, to which the members of the organisation are attached.

Those divisions are:

  • the Communications Division
  • the Electrical, Energy and Services Division, and
  • the Plumbing Division.

Each division is divided into divisional branches. The Communications Division also has Industry Sections.   

The general control and conduct of the business of the organisation is vested in the National Council, which comprises some Divisional officers and Divisional Branch delegates. The governing structure of the organisation also includes a National Executive, Divisional Conferences, Divisional Executives and Branch committees.

Each division, and the NSW Divisional Branch of the Electrical, Energy and Services Division, is governed by both the set of rules applying to the whole of the organisation and a discrete set of rules applying to that division (or Branch) alone. 

Elections for office positions within the organisation are conducted by the AEC, and the term of office is 4 years.

The organisation's rules and rule alterations are available in a table here.
