Close the loopholes and keep wages moving

Australian Council of Trade Unions

This campaign has ended.

Big businesses are using loopholes in Australia’s workplace laws to drive down wages and conditions. We need to close the loopholes to keep wages moving and make jobs more secure.

Why is this important?

Wages are going backwards and have been for 10 years.

Workers’ wages are now worth less than they were 10 years ago. Add to this the cost of living and the housing crisis and many people are really struggling.

Too many jobs have been contracted out or made insecure.

Big companies like Qantas have used loopholes in workplace laws to drive down wages, contract out work, and take away working conditions.

It's time to update Australia's workplace laws to protect workers and keep wages moving.
