If you increase the number of prisoners you must increase the number of workers, all the way down the Justice pipeline. Court workers, lawyers, Allied Health Professionals, COs, rehabilitation and reintegration workers #politas

Sign the petition to the Jeremy Rockliff government:
Tasmania needs Industrial Manslaughter laws: tinyurl.com/5hamdp5p #politas

If you’re driving past Unions Tasmania office in nipaluna/Hobart, you’ll see our new banner calling on Jeremy Rockliff to legislate for industrial manslaughter (IM) now. Tasmania is the only state or territory without IM or a commitment to legislate for it #politas #IWMD2024 #WHS

Standing room only to remember the International Workers Memorial Day. Remember, those who have lost their lives, and fight for improvements to safety for all. Those injured, killed or so traumatised by work they take their own lives #safety #union

Would have been a great day to announce that you will commit to #industrialmanslaughter laws. And stop work bullying orders, available to all private sector workers. Both these measures would make workplaces safer #IWMD24

Solidarity with taxi drivers striking today: they deserve to be safe at work. #politas ABC Hobart

This year's International Workers' Memorial Day recognises the devastating effect the climate crisis has on workers around the world.

We reflect on those who lost their lives at work, and vow to fight for those living.

A message from ACTU Assistant Secretary Liam O'Brien.

On tomorrow in Launceston and on Monday in nipaluna/Hobart. Details below 👇

The company’s not disputing that its Tassie workers are paid 21% less than sister sites on the mainland. There’s no justification for it. Unions Tasmania has been calling out the mainland wage gap as unfair and significantly disadvantaging workers here theadvocate.com.au/story/8601893/ #politas

Latest numbers from Australian Bureau of Statistics today for the state: Unsentenced prisoners increased 41% (84) to 291. We need to fund down the pipeline in justice. #politas

What has the union ever done for me? #ausunions #UnionStrong #eighthourday

Racism has no place here or anywhere. We stand against racism, discrimination and harassment. #politas

We need to ensure that Tasmanian public sector workers don't fall behind other workers in our state when it comes to newly won rights in Fair Work. #AusUnions #politas

A thread on TasRacing #politas 👇

The Tassie public sector is under-resourced, struggling with vacancies and has significant reform to
undertake from dozens of reviews. The last thing they need is American style politics pushing them to deliver outcomes in 100 days, for the election that came a year early.

Work overload - chronic understaffing, lack of management support - are all psychosocial WHS hazards. They injure workers just as surely as a trip or fall hazard would. Employers need to address them as the serious safety risks they are #politas themercury.com.au/truecrimeaustr…
