YOUR RIGHTS AT
WORK, WORTH FIGHTING FOR
In 2005 the Howard Government revealed, for the first time, the full extent of its proposed workplace changes. The decent system of workplace laws fought for by unions for over a hundred years - fair take home pay, job security, and conditions like leave and penalty rates - are all under unprecedented attack. It’s vital that Australians know the full extent of the Howard Government’s laws, and even more vital that, together, we fight for Rights at Work. The PSA directly and through the CPSU SPSF-Gropup federally is part of this vital education program. The ACTU Your Rights at Work web-site with all the latest news is here.
