So proud to be a member of this mighty union.

Over the weekend we were proud to march with our #LGBTQIA members, officials and allies for International Trans Day of Visibility.
Here are some snaps from the Sydney and Melbourne rallies. Please, if you have any pics - share them with us!

UWU STATEMENT:
To our #LGBTQIA members, officials, friends and communities: we stand with you.
Over the past week, all of us at UWU have been deeply disturbed by the hate we've witnessed against the trans community.

Can we please get a denouncement of last night's attacks on the 15 peaceful LGBTQI protestors in your electorates, @jasonyatsenli & @Tony_Burke?
As you said of your constituents in 2017, Tony - "if I'm willing to defend them as minorities, I can't pick and choose."

Reminder that two thirds of the $254 billion Stage 3 tax cuts will go to men. $254 billion could fund the construction of enough public homes to clear the waitlists (majority women and children), bring back the single parents pension (which Labor cut) & introduce free childcare.

In a devastating blow to my microbiome, turns out broccolini = hectic exploitation of farm workers.
@woolworths @coles could set ethical standards for companies in their supply chain, but... nah. Too hard.

The Australian flag flying above Parliament House has a gaping hole in it. We should have pride in our flag and I hope the Prime Minister @AlboMP will fix this

Thank you @TUNSW for your tireless work & brilliant policy contributions to improve the lives of renters in NSW. The ban on no grounds evictions will change thousands of lives for the better.
Haven't heard of the Tenants Union? This report is a great intro tenants.org.au/news/tenants-…

Goodman Fielder/Pampas workers taking the fight to supposedly ethical @Zambrero - more like #scambreros !
Across the country solidarity actions are taking place calling on them to act on their ethical image and intervene in this exploitation in their supply chain. #PayUpPampas

Can’t be an ethical company if your supply chain is exploiting workers! @Zambrero tell #Pampas to pay workers fairly #PayUpPampas

Hey @Zambrero - just noticed a couple of typos on your homepage (in the "Feel Good Mex" section).
Could you please update & better inform your customers of *ALL* of the awesome work you're doing to support people in need?
Kthx!

TFW companies like @Zambrero loudly proclaim all the Social Good they're doing as their point of difference...
...Then condone low pay & insecure work in their supply chains by giving $$ to companies exploiting workers.
Seems fine.

Put me in charge of Centrelink. Sack all the agencies. Get rid of Serco. Employ staff to help people. Give the clients the proceeds.
No more mutual obligation bullshit.
No demerit points.
No more suicides.
No fake debts.
Treat people with respect.

Just sending a quick morning "fuck you" to @sydneymardigras for ignoring 2 emails sent to their dedicated accessibility email address last week ( 2 instagram DMs & now probably this tweet).
...Still no word on whether I can access that venue (for an event that has now passed).

Most won't have the luxury of a parliamentary pension to fund our care needs in old age. We want to know we'll get the quality of care we deserve when the time comes- which requires funding, wage increases & care time guarantees.
Fixing the #agedcarecrisis can't wait any longer.
28 Feb 2022
On today: Aged care workers and experts discuss the aged care crisis and how to ensure a quality care system gives residents the care they deserve!

LNP has an embarrassing track record of running in the opposite direction at the mere mention of a crisis.
The #agedcarecrisis demands urgent & decisive leadership @richardmcolbeck, @ScottMorrisonMP. Stop running.
@UnitedWorkersOz are taking action: uwu.org.au/acaction

Imagine that you've landed a CEO position at $1bn company, #SunRice, only to spend your days trying to keep casual workers worse off than they would be on the award & strip them of volunteer firey leave.
This is not your dream job, surely? A great salary, but at what cost?
31 Jan 2022
Taking away DV leave? Taking away time to donate blood or work as volunteer firefighters? Is this REALLY the way $1 billion Sunrice wants to treat their workers?
No wonder those workers have gone on strike today!

Sounds like a good time for literally everyone but tax avoidant billionaires?
If I know anything about my fellow Australians, it's that they hate medicare & think we should throw it in the bin. A real vote-winner, that one.
29 Jan 2022
A Govt alliance between @AustralianLabor& @Greens will mean a tax on billionaires & big business, free childcare costing $20bn, adding dental & mental health to Medicare & a social housing scheme. Sounds great but you will be paying for it with higher taxes - if you have a job!

Should someone break it to her that all of us hating on dentists =/= hating on universal dental care?
