Notes In 1979, the Altona Petrochemical Complex was the scene of a historic materialisation of class struggle, when 52 workers occupied the Union Carbide plant for a period of 51 days. It was, and remains, the longest factory occupation in Australian history. The Altona Chemical Complex began production in the early 1960s and is the largest production centre for petrochemicals and plastics in Australia today.
