Every day, unions act to protect the rights of workers across the country, keeping people safe at work and creating the best services for our community. The current union-busting bill, 'ensuring integrity' will destroy everything we're built to protect workers.
It's now or never.
We need every member to help to protect workers rights by contacting the cross bench Senators.
We're asking all members to contact One Nation Senators Pauline Hanson and Malcolm Roberts and Senator Jacqui Lambie urging them to block this bill on behalf of all Australian workers.
All you need to do is tell your PERSONAL story as a worker in the Disability, Mental Health or Alcohol and Other Drugs sectors. The link below will take you to a website with a pre-written letter you can edit and include the following:
We need to ensure that we're all polite in these emails. This bill has already been deeply divisive and we don't want to worsen that. In this late stage of the game, we want to ask for support for Australian workers, not call out specific Senators on their politics.
Here are some examples of things you can say:
Everyone has a story of being supported by their union when times are tough. Now's the time for each and every member to give back.
Protect workers rights by sharing your story today.
