Get Involved in a Campaign

Fighting for Queenslanders is a campaign to protect and promote the important things in life that working people in Queensland enjoy. We’re fighting for Queenslanders to have good jobs, access to housing, safety and respect, and world-leading health and education.

We believe in decent work (safe, secure, dignified) and maintaining public ownership of essential infrastructure such as power and water.

It’s For Every Body is a campaign to win leave and flexibility entitlements for workers experiencing reproductive health issues.

Reproductive Health Leave describes an entitlement that provides leave and flexibility for workers to address reproductive health issues that impact on their capacity to work or take preventative measures like health screening.

Share the Care is Queensland Union’s campaign for equal paid parental leave and rights for all parents in the public sector. 

Despite progress, disparities continue to exist between the amount of paid parental leave available to working mums compared to working dads and partners.  

Equal paid parental leave and rights recognises all parents need valuable time to care for their newborn, benefiting parents, grandparents, young children, employers, and the broader community.  

Share the Care is the right step forward so all employees have better opportunities to help shape their children’s early years. 

Join a Network

The ultimate goal of the Health & Safety Support Service is to ensure safer workplaces in Queensland with well supported and effective HSRs.

Being an HSR makes a big difference to health and safety in your workplace. With important legal powers HSR’s ensure workers have strong voice on health and safety in your workplace.

We can provide all the information and training you need to become a HSR in your workplace.

The Young Workers Hub inspires, educates, and empowers young workers. Founded in 2018, we are based at the Queensland Council of Unions in Brisbane/Meanjin.

We campaign for real change on issues that undermine the power of young people at work and beyond.

We educate and advocate for young people’s rights at work.

We win big – we have criminalised wage theft, and held one of the biggest hospitality employers in South East Queensland to account over their dodgy practices.
