Coronavirus - A guaranteed wage subsidy to save jobs now!

This campaign has ended.

The Morrison Government must provide a guaranteed wage subsidy to all working people immediately.

Why is this important?

Working Australians have been dealt a body blow by the impact of the coronavirus. Millions of workers are facing the very real prospect of losing their job and they need the government to act.

Sign our petition and tell the Morrison government it must provide a guaranteed wage subsidy to all working people immediately to save jobs.

Other countries' governments have already done this. The UK government is guaranteeing 80% of people's wages. It’s time Scott Morrison gave Australian workers the same assurance that they are not being abandoned.

Scott Morrison has announced a wage subsidy for Australian workers, but it excludes 500,000 casuals and over 1 million temporary visa holders.

Let the Prime Minister know that it is only by keeping people in jobs that the future of Australian workers, their families and their communities can be secured.

If we guarantee wages now we will keep people in jobs and out of welfare. Sign the petition for a guaranteed wage subsidy and let Scott Morrison know Australian workers need a government that puts the well-being of workers first.
