AMWU - campaign YOUR RIGHTS AT WORK

your rights at work
about | YouTube! | Reports | leaflet & poster

The Howard Government's radical industrial relations agenda hurt the quality of life of millions of Australians. Together, working people and the trade union movement ran a national campaign against the laws which led to defeat of the Howard Government at the 2007 federal election.

Now, with a Rudd Labor Government elected on the promise of restoring workers' rights, our campaign is focussing on ensuring that these new laws offer workers real protection and strong democratic bargaining rights.

The AMWU and all other unions are campaigning with community support to ensure that our rights at work are never attacked again. This campaign site will help you learn more about how you can get involved.

First Name*	Your Message Dear Minister, The defeat of the Howard Government in 2007 was an unequivocal statement that Australian's reject the ideological policies of WorkChoices and its attack on the Australian fair go. I urge you to waste no time in removing these laws, including AWAs and other forms of individual contract that allow the removal of rihgts, and restoring unfair dismissal rights for all workers. Yours sincerely.

Australians deserve the right to have a say in their terms of employment. If workers want, and vote for, a collective agreement, that decision should be respected. If workers want to be represented by their union, they should have that right. I support the ACTU position on democratic bargaining, and call on the Rudd Labor Government to enshrine this right in law.
