End the two-tier system at Kellogg's!Workers at the Kellogg's factory in Botany are fighting for a cost-of-living wage increase and the same rights on site. Kellogg's thinks it's okay to treat one group of workers differently to another. This two-tier system is disrespectful. Many of the workers have been at the site for years and take great pride in their work at the 100-year-old factory. However, the company does not respect them. All workers want their fair share. Kelloggâs rakes in a revenue of hundreds of millions of dollars every year, and it has just raised the price of its famous cereals. Yet the company refuses to make workers a pay offer that recognises their contribution to Kellogg's success. We, the undersigned, call on the Kellogg's CEO meet with workers and offer a fair deal.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by United Workers Union

ECEC WORKERS DESERVE THEIR PAY RISE â URGE YOUR COUNCIL TO ACT NOW!For too long, local government ECEC workers have been underpaid. Now, we have a chance to fix this, but only if councils take the necessary steps. ASU members fought to make sure local government ECEC workers were included in this funding, and we won. Now, we need to make sure every eligible worker receives it. Thatâs why weâre calling on all local government ECEC workers to demand their councils apply for the funding and put the required workplace instrument in place. Sign the petition today to tell your council: ECEC workers deserve their pay rise! We, the undersigned, call on our employer to apply for the Commonwealth Governmentâs Worker Retention Payment and amend our workplace agreement to ensure these pay rises are delivered. We endorse the ASU to act on our behalf in securing this outcome and ensuring that no eligible worker is left behind. Sign now and stand with your fellow ECEC workers for fair pay!Â1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by ASUVicTas

Save NT Portable Long Service LeaveBecause of government funding changes, many community + disability sector workers never get to stay with one employer long enough to take long service leave. Thatâs why states and territories throughout Australia are legislating for portable long service leave so workers take their leave entitlements with them between employers. Â Northern Territory workers are about to fall behind the rest of the country because of the CLP Government. Sign the petition and stand with Australian Services Union members in calling on the NT Government to save Portable Long Service Leave.Â205 of 300 SignaturesCreated by ASU SA+NT Branch

Save the Safe Haven Cafe!The Safe Haven Cafe offers a vital alternative to emergency department visits for people experiencing non-urgent mental health issues. It's led by LLEW (Lived & Living Experience Workers), providing compassionate, peer-based support that is accessible and non-judgmental. With the growing crises in housing, cost of living, and social isolation, the need for services like the Safe Haven Cafe has never been more urgent. Closing this service directly impacts those who are already marginalised and struggling to access mental health care. The lack of affordable and accessible optionsâdue to long wait times and high costsâleaves many people without support when they need it most. This closure would be a failure of St Vincent's commitment to its own values of compassion, justice, and person-centred care. We cannot afford to lose this service. Stand with us to protect mental health services in our community!287 of 300 SignaturesCreated by HACSU (Health & Community Services Union VIC)

Demand employer-funded paid parental leave at G8 EducationHere are the facts: ⢠91% of the early childhood workforce is female. ⢠G8 Education is one of the largest ASX-listed companies that doesn't offer employer-funded paid parental leave for their employees. ⢠In the 2024 Global Gender Gap Report, Australian women are ranked 42nd in the world for economic participation and opportunity (down from 38 in 2023). ⢠In Australia, a third of the gender pay gap is due to the time women spend in unpaid care work. ⢠G8's current gender pay gap is 20.1% (of the average total remuneration according to WGEA's latest data) ⢠By not offering employer-funded paid parental leave, G8 Education is helping to grow the gender pay gap. It is perpetuating the 'motherhood penalty' which sees the average 25-year-old woman make $2 million less in lifetime earnings than the average 25-year-old man who also becomes a parent.  ⢠Degree-qualified early childhood teachers are leaving the sector to work in schools with better pay and conditions, including employer-funded paid parental leave. If this continues, the quality of early learning in Australia will suffer as we lose dedicated and highly skilled teachers.  Teachers, educators and young children deserve better.  Itâs time for G8 Education to step up and show they value the essential work that their teachers and educators perform. Please sign and share this petition today. * This petition supports Sustainable Investment Exchangeâs campaign to pressure G8 to fund paid parental leave for staff. Learn more about the activist shareholderâs campaign here.176 of 200 SignaturesCreated by IEUA NSW/ACT Branch

I will vote to protect our rights at workThe Liberal Party has promised to scrap recently won improvements to our rights at work: ⢠pushing to cut superannuation to 9% ⢠they will kill off new âright to disconnectâ laws, which stop bosses hassling us at home ⢠they will wreck âsame job, same payâ laws ⢠they will take away rights for casual workers, making them easier to exploit and to sack ⢠they will scrap laws that criminalise wage theft. This is just the start. The Liberal Party says âeverything is on the tableâ when it comes to dismantling Australiansâ rights at work.35 of 100 SignaturesCreated by We Are Union

I will vote to protect my retirement savingsPeter Duttonâs colleagues want to slash the Superannuation Guarantee to just 9% for us... while maintaining their own at 15.4%. This would cost the average 30-year-old worker up to $165,000 in lost super by the time they retire. The Liberals also plan on pushing first home buyers to take money from their superannuation to buy a house, inflating house prices while robbing young Australians of security in retirement. Australia has one of the best retirement income systems in the world. Letâs protect it.34 of 100 SignaturesCreated by We Are Union

SGS Workers Demand Good Faith Bargaining!Bargaining in good faith isnât just a legal obligation, itâs the right thing to do. When workers are denied a seat at the table, it sets a dangerous precedent. Fair pay and safe conditions donât happen by chance, theyâre fought for.

No worker left behind - Fair entitlements for all workersTemporary migrant workers are not eligible for the Fair Entitlements Guarantee.  This exclusion creates a two-tier workforce, where migrant workers are left with nothing while others are protected. It rewards dodgy employers who exploit migrant labour, shut down their businesses, and walk away without paying whatâs owed. đ¨ If we donât act now, this will only get worse. When employers get away with underpaying or abandoning workers, it drags down wages and conditions for everyone. This isnât just a migrant worker issueâitâs a union issue, a worker issue, and a fairness issue. đ˘ Sign the petition today and stand in solidarity with migrant workers! đ Read our Policy Brief âExpanding the Fair Entitlements Guaranteeâ here221 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Migrant Workers Centre
