Three resolutions were endorsed on behalf of the combined 85,000 members of the four unions which make up the group and included strike action and fundraising for hunting lobby groups.
Electrical Trades Union state secretary Troy Gray said recreational groups, unions and numerous individuals who submitted to the inquiry were ignored.
“With this farce of an inquiry over, it is now on the government leadership to decide if it will stand with working-class communities and work in good faith to improve and maintain this important recreation,” Mr Gray said.
“Or else side with fringe animal rights activists.
“(This) government has been elected many times on a platform that included support for hunting and outdoor recreation.”
As part of campaigning for industry workers, unions have prioritised the regulating of working hours so workers can have sufficient time for recreation.
The ETU believes this involves a strong connection with outdoor recreation, including hunting.
On Thursday, August 31, the ETU said the majority report from the inquiry clearly demonstrated that arguments made by hunting supporters and scientists were ignored.
“Committee members unquestioningly accepted the ideological dogma of the Animal Justice Party,” the union said.
