Luke Girke is a dedicated construction worker with a strong background in the flooring industry and a commitment to union values. Beginning his career as a general labourer, Luke worked on APM sites across Melbourne’s metro region while employed by a private flooring company. Through hands-on experience, he developed a solid understanding of site operations and learned the fundamentals of the flooring trade, gaining skills in installation, preparation, and finishing techniques.
As his work increasingly took him to union sites, Luke inevitably became a CFMEU member to continue working onsite, fully embracing the principles of solidarity, workplace safety, and fair conditions for all workers. Throughout his time in the industry, he remained committed to upholding union standards and contributing to a safe and equitable work environment.
Due to diverging career pathways, Luke is no longer an active union member but remains appreciative of the CFMEU’s role in the industry. Should he be required on-site in the future, he is open to renewing his membership to continue working under union conditions.
With a strong work ethic and a passion for quality workmanship, Luke continues to bring reliability, experience, and professionalism to every job he undertakes.
