'...there were “serious concerns” from caucus about the legislation, how it was handled & the fact no unions appeared to support the bill. “Unions have been actively contacting MPs about this issue. That has rattled caucus members” they said.' #springst ow.ly/gNb150QKtEu

Throwing injured workers to the wolves is not the answer. Scrap these WorkCover changes, start again, and try ACTUALLY consulting with workers next time.

BREAKING: Labor & the Liberals have done a deal to reduce the rights of injured workers. This Bill represents the worst of Victorian politics.   This will take the Victorian WorkCover scheme from one of the best schemes in the country to one of the worst. 🧵 1/4 #springst

Union activists are sick and tired of companies that are more concerned with protecting their brand, than protecting their workers from sexual harassment and toxic cultures. Act on gendered violence or women will speak up in solidarity and come for your brand.

Clearly Dutton has been caught up in the recent Fallout revival, and like most hard right conservatives completely missed the satire. We've got better solutions to the energy crisis than turning goannas into Deathclaws. #auspol

No one should have to work a second job whilst doing their apprenticeship. We need to end discriminatory junior wages, so young people like Helena get a fair go. #FairWagesAllAges

Submitted as evidence that we can't fake your words. Please share your real life experience as a young worker earning junior rates, so I don't have to try to use skibidi toilet in a sentence. ow.ly/IqKB50So0i3

Ella and Lucy demonstrated peaceful solidarity with Palestine, which resulted in them losing their livelihood. The YWC is proud to stand with Ella and Lucy in reaching this outcome. ow.ly/N11h50Sui3E

HUGE breaking news for apprentices across Victoria. After a huge campaign by young workers, the Victorian Government has agreed to crucial reforms that will help us BAN BAD BOSSES! #springst youngworkers.org.au/government_com…

These reforms have been years in the making, following extensive campaigning and advocacy by apprentices, unions and the YWC. I'm very proud to have been involved, and very glad the government is taking steps to protect our apprentices. #springst
