I'm not so sure you will be! It was unions who fought for and won a superannuation scheme in lieu of a pay rise. It was unions who won a 38 hour week. It was unions who stand up for safety in workplaces and continue to do so. Many of the things we hold dear as Australians in our working life no matter who we work for can be linked back to somebody somewhere saying 'Enough is enough' and getting together with fellow workers to change it. If we still had work choices bosses would be knocking hundreds off of all our pay packets to 'stay competitive'. This would only result in a race to the bottom leading to decent bosses winning no work and scum making all the profit. |
