UnionsWA

Farewell and best wishes @OwenWhittle.

David vs Goliath. This Tuesday 5:30 pm. For their success in raising awareness about asbestos, @apheda supported Indonesia LION activists are being sued by the asbestos industry. Hear about and show your support. RSVP link below. unionswa.com.au/event/asbestos…

And resources companies scratch their heads, complain and wonder why more miners unionise.

Was only days ago Mettam was decrying the state of public sector wages. Which one is it? 🤷‍♂️

This is what solidarity looks like. After months of action from individual unions we came together today to demand better pay and dignity in public sector work. ✊✊

The hilarious and over the top reaction from industry to workers bargaining collectively tells us all we need to know - it works, and it will lead to better pay and conditions for workers in the resources industry.

Seven workplace deaths in five weeks is an outrage. These are always preventable and far too few receive any kind of prosecution or penalty.

✊Today Allied Health Professionals came together and stood up in solidarity with Anaesthetic Technicians from PCH and SCGH at their Stop Work meeting held on the grass at QEII. #StandUpForHigherPay #StandUpForBetterConditions

It's a huge day for CPFS members in Armadale & Albany who have taken powerful strike action to bring attention to the urgent sector-wide crisis facing WA Child Protection Workers & the vulnerable children & families they support. Well done!✊ News Article: thewest.com.au/politics/state…

Tony Armstrong, Paul Kelly, Dave Hughes and Jane Harper are among the dozens of high-profile Australians standing with journalists from the newsrooms of The Age, Sydney Morning Herald, Australian Financial Review, Brisbane Times and WAToday, demanding quality jobs for quality journalism. We need your support, please share our message and sign the petition. meaa.org/dont-torch-jou… #donttorchjournalism #MEAAmedia

Rubbish claims from WA health in this important article. I've been working with these interpreters for two years and universally they have limited to no access to pre or post debriefing services after a traumatic event.

Today, CPSU/CSA proudly marched alongside 8,000 teachers, principals, and Public Sector Alliance union members to support the SSTUWA member strike action for better pay and conditions. ✊Our unity is our strength! 💪#FixEd #PublicSectorAlliance

A clear message sent to the State Government today as at least 12,000 teachers turned out to take action for better pay and conditions. Largest strike in WA many years.

This rings shallow after seven years of real wage cuts for Teachers.

Hear @apheda CEO Kate Lee, enjoy great Greek food, support an important cause. Friday 3rd May, full details linked below. unionswa.com.au/2024_may_day_d…

Sham contracting is rife across construction in WA. If this race to the bottom on a government project results in this worker's family being hundreds of thousands of dollars short, someone needs to step in to cover the gap.

After 7 years pay offers below cost of living increases and escalating workloads teachers deserve a pay offer that adequately rewards them for the work they do.

WA has the worst #genderpaygap in Australia. Hear stories from working women about what that means for them this #IWD2024 #wapol #wanews #perthnews #ausunions unionswa.com.au/2024_internati…

Do you hold union values dear and know your way around policy challenges and a spreadsheet? If so, come and work with us! ethicaljobs.com.au/members/Unions…

Next Tuesday we'll hear about some great research on unionism. There's a Zoom option. Thanks for coordinating @CntrFutureWork #wapol #wanews #perthnews #UnionStrong unionswa.com.au/solidarity_res…
