Former maintenance workers got $21 million compensation package

Former RAAF maintenance workers exposed to toxic chemicals would get a total of $21 million in lump sum payments. About 600 workers will be eligible for ex-gratia payments of up to $40,000 as part of the $21 million compensation package.

According to findings in the Study of Health Outcomes in Aircraft Maintenance Personnel, between 400 and 700 RAAF personnel and contractors suffered ill health and lower quality of life after being involved in resealing fuel tanks on the aircraft between 1975 and 1999.
