Protected action has to start within 30 days of the result being declared, though the FWC can extend that.

Reported action is only tracked while a ballot's authorisation window is open, so this page doesn't say whether action followed. For that, check the union's own updates or contact them.

The wording above is shortened from the notice's questions: introductory phrases are removed, and the action, what's affected, how long and any exclusions are kept. A question passes if more than half of the valid votes were yes. † Read from chart images in the FWC notice, so check the notice for the official figures.
