BREAKING: Senate just passed better workplace laws

It will mean:
•Casual workers have more rights
•Gig workers finally have rights at work
•A right to disconnect.

Big business & Dutton opposed the laws & were no match for the campaigning by union members all over Oz!

Catholic school teachers & IEU delegates Abbey and Eugene along with Assistant Sec Veronica, address Senate Inquiry on why delegates are so important to fair workplaces and operation of schools. Time to #CloseTheLoopholes and guarantee delegates’ rights

The Australian Teacher Workforce Data survey is open until Friday. Complete this important survey to ensure that governments and relevant agencies hear your voice!

Met up with these brand new union organisers this morning from ⁦IEU Victoria Tasmania⁩ ⁦MEAA⁩ ⁦RTBU⁩ & ⁦⁦AEU Victoria⁩. So much passion and dedication, the future is in good hands

All we want for Christmas is... a fair deal in Victorian Catholic schools, that doesn't leave 25,000 staff on inferior working conditions!
Over to you, @CEMelbourne

Make no mistake - this problem starts and ends with the negotiators at @CEMelbourne. How hard can it be to accept that Catholic school staff work as hard and deserve the same conditions as their colleagues in govt schools? #dothedealMACS #nomorefreebies

This is a game-changer, and a win for all workers - not least IEU members who will at last have the right to take industrial action, and will never again have to negotiate with one hand tied behind their backs.
Congratulations to all unionists who fought for this.

Working people can have hope today - hope that the decade of policies that have suppressed wages is over. Working people can have hope that this legislation will deliver more secure jobs, better pay and make work fairer for women.

25,000 staff in Victorian Catholic schools are trying to negotiate a new Agreement, but have no right to take industrial action.
It’s just not fair.
David Pocock Jacqui Lambie Tammy Tyrrell - we need your help – pass the Secure Jobs, Better Pay Bill! Australian Unions #auspol

It's Go Home On Time Day today.

Are you working in a non-government school or ECE?
Here are 3 key takeaways of how the IR Bill would impact 75,000 IEU members:

An open letter to all Victorian Catholic Education Employers and Principals (except Sale Diocese).
Principals and staff have been shamefully failed by employer bargaining reps - this cannot continue!
