Australian Council of Trade Unions

The Australian Council of Trade Unions (ACTU) is a significant player in advocating for workers rights and labor standards in Australia. With a history dating back to the 1920s, the ACTU continues to be a vocal champion for fair wages, safe working conditions, and job security. Recent campaigns led by the ACTU have focused on issues such as minimum wage increases, paid sick leave, and gender pay equity. Petitions under this topic highlight concerns about exploitation in the gig economy, workplace discrimination, and the need for stronger industrial relations laws. Noteworthy petitions call for paid pandemic leave for all workers, greater transparency in wage negotiations, and improved safety measures for essential workers during COVID-19. Join the movement to support Australian workers by exploring the petitions on the ACTU topic page and adding your voice to the call for better working conditions and rights. Make a difference by standing with workers across the country for a fair and just workplace.
