We stand for working people.
Always.
UnionsACT is the independent voice of the Canberra trade union movement
Representing 23 unions and more than 33,000 members, UnionsACT is the largest representative organisation in the ACT. We work for big, important and permanent changes that improve the lives of working people in the Canberra region.
Tens of thousands of everyday working people like you are building a movement to fight for your living standards and to build a better future for all.
Campaigns
Secure Jobs
Insecure, contract and casualised work is at the worst-ever levels. We're campaigning to restore secure jobs for all working people.
Young workers
Young workers are twice as likely to experience wage-theft or be seriously injured.
That's why we launched the Young Workers Advice Service
Women
Equality is not a negotiation, and we won't stop until we've closed the pay-gap and ensured that working women are treated with dignity, respect and equality.
Work safety
The ACT is the second most dangerous place in Australia to work.
That's why unions have campaigned for and won stronger safety laws, so every worker can get home safely. If you have been Injured at work head over to the Injured Workers Service we run.
