Unions ACT is the peak body for trade unions in Canberra and the region. We represent 24 unions and 30,000 union members. We are an affiliate member of the Australian Council of Trade Unions (ACTU). We aim to link workers with their appropriate trade union and we facilitate contact with and between different unions and other organisations such as government, lobby groups, political parties, community groups and others interested in protecting worker’s rights at work. We can provide general advice about industrial issues but in the first instance we generally connect enquiries with a particular union. |
