Unions Tasmania

About

We are a people powered movement of 50,000 members, working in the public and private sector, across every industry and workplace in Tasmania. We are the only peak body dedicated to fighting for workers and are proud to have done so for 140 years. As the peak body for our state’s trade unions, we campaign and organise alongside our affiliate unions in workplaces and the community to make sure workers get a fair go. We publicly advocate for policy and laws that support working people and their families. We’re about building a more equitable and fair society. We take action on the big issues for workers: job insecurity, decent work, fair pay, workplace health and safety, and dignity at work. We also challenge corporate power, rising inequality and defend workers’ rights when they are under attack. At Unions Tasmania, we bring union members together to act collectively in the best interests of us all. We stand for equality, respect, and fairness in the workplace. We ask all workers to join and become a union member because when working people stand together, we win.
