IRS Finnegan Rudd Dinner - Future of the Aerospace Industry in the Hunter

Annual Finnegan-Rudd Dinner - The Future of the Aerospace Industry in the Hunter

The dinner marks the enormous contribution to industrial relations of Maurie Finnegan and Maurie Rudd, both former Branch Secretaries of the then Federated Ironworkers’ Association in the Hunter Region, who worked tirelessly during the 1970s and 1980s to create and promote a more co-operative industrial relations environment during a period when the region was characterised by conflict and distrust.

The dinner will commence with canapés and drinks on arrival, followed by a three course meal. This is a unique opportunity to hear about one of the key industries in the future of the region and to network with like-minded people interested in Industrial Relations.
