Postcard Campaign Launch Against Insecure Work May 1, 2012

• Do you think it is wrong that women earn, on average, 17.8% less than men?
• Are you concerned that 40% of all workers have jobs that are insecure?
• Ever been a casual worker, paid peanuts and treated like crap?
• Worried that your fixed term contract is coming to an end and don’t know what’s next?

The Australian Council of Trade Unions (ACTU) is planning a campaign against the epidemic of insecure work — and we’re kicking off our own grassroots campaign in support.

Celebrate May Day by attending the launch of a campaign postcard to tell the ACTU that insecure work is an important factor contributing to unequal pay. Get behind the call for the ACTU Congress to kick off a campaign for secure jobs that mobilises rank and file workers and builds a mass movement in workplaces and puts feet on the street!

So come along, find out about the campaign, sign a postcard, have a drink, and share horror stories about casual and other insecure work.

If you can’t attend the launch, please let us know if you would still like to contribute by sending a postcard or getting some to share with your workmates!
