By the 1930s, the union was reported to be controlled by the Communist Party of Australia. In 1949, the union headed the 1949 Australian coal strike, which resulted in the Australian Labor Party government of Ben Chifley using the army to break the strike. It amalgamated with the to form the in 1990, which after two further amalgamations formed the Construction Forestry and Mining Employees' Union (the forerunner of the modern Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union) in 1992.
