Happy Labour Day from the AWU!

Today we celebrate the generations of workers who fought for the rights and conditions we have today and the workers who continue that fight every day.

The AWU knows how important a strong labour hire licensing system is to protecting some of our most vulnerable workers.

For years, we have been calling for reform in NSW to stop dodgy labour hire operators exploiting workers, undercutting conditions and taking advantage of gaps in the system.

We welcome the announcement that labour hire licensing will be an election commitment and look forward to seeing a strong scheme implemented in NSW.

This is an important step towards tackling worker exploitation and eradicating modern slavery in our state.

AWU member Shane sat down with The Guardian and shared what life looks like for so many working families right now.

When the cost of groceries, housing, bills and everyday essentials keeps rising, workers need real pay rises that keep up with the cost of living. Working people deserve to get ahead, not just keep their heads above water.

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads, grandfathers and father figures across the AWU!

AWU member Paris followed her dad Grant into the steel industry, getting the chance to work together until Grant's recent retirement.

At Boral Cement, father and son Brett and Khye also get to work side by side as AWU members.

Thank you to all the AWU dads who have passed on their skills, knowledge and union values to the next generation.

This week, AWU officials from NSW joined our interstate colleagues from other branches at the ACTU Momentum Conference.

It was a great opportunity to come together with unionists from across the movement and organise for workers across Australia!

10 years ago today, the Greater NSW, Newcastle and Port Kembla branches came together to form the AWU NSW Branch.

Since then, we’ve delivered for members, won better conditions and helped create safer workplaces right across NSW.

A decade on, we’re proud of what we’ve achieved together and ready to keep fighting for working people for many years to come.
