Why should I join a union?

Joining your union is the best way to secure a better life – at work and at home. You can join online here.

Unions are all about workers standing up for ourselves and our workmates. Together we’ve won important rights – like sick pay, annual leave, penalty rates and reasonable work hours.

We just want fair wages, and enough time to spend away from work with our family and friends. We want certainty of hours, and security to plan for the future.

It’s not a lot to ask. By joining, you’ll help secure a better life for you and those who have yet to come.

You’ll also gain access to protection at work, better wages and great member-only benefits like cheaper movie tickets, mortgages and car hire.

If you have any questions, call Australian Unions.
