Our Services
Queensland Unions supports a range of services that are available to the community in order to improve conditions for working Queenslanders.
Safe Work College provides quality workplace health and safety training.
Thousands of employers, employer representatives and workers have gained valuable knowledge and skills through participation in workplace health and safety courses provided by the college.
Research shows workplace health and safety representatives and workplace health and safety officers use the knowledge and skills acquired through their participation in Safe Work training courses to make the workplace a healthier and safer place to work.​
Young Workers Hub inspires, educates, and empowers young workers.
​
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.

This independent, confidential and free service helps Queenslanders experiencing a work-related psychological injury to connect with the right community services.

It can also assist workers who may have developed a mental health issue arising from the impact of a physical workplace injury.

It is a free service available to all Queensland workers.​

Women Rise
Queensland Women Rise (QWR) is building a future where women can participate, lead and thrive in every workplace and industry across Queensland.
​
As a union-led initiative, QWR works to address the barriers women continue to face in male-dominated industries, including workplace safety risks, discrimination, harassment and unequal access to opportunities.
​
Through training, education and collaboration, we empower workers, delegates, health and safety representatives and employers to create safer, more inclusive and equitable workplaces.
​
We know that when women have a voice at work, workplaces are safer, stronger and better for everyone.
​
Together, we are driving lasting change so that every woman has the opportunity to work safely, be treated with respect and reach her full potential.
​

Change happens when people come together. Whether you're a worker, delegate, HSR, union member or employer, join us to build workplaces where everyone can thrive.
