TWU (VIC/TAS Branch) Secretary and TWU National Vice-President John Berger and Assistant Secretary Chris Fennell are part of the TWU’s delegation attending this week’s ACTU triennial congress.
The congress is attended by some of the union movement’s biggest players representing workers from every industry and sector in Australia and is used to shape the Australian union movements focus for the coming months and years.
It will also provide an opportunity for the TWU to put the concerns and needs of transport workers and transport sectors on the table.
This is an essential opportunity for TWU members while the ACTU is in the midst of its Change The Rules campaign – the largest worker push since the Your Rights At Work campaign which brought down the Howard Government last decade.
