Get Active - Your Rights At Work Community Campaigns

Get Active

Getting active in your local community is a vital part of the fight to tear up the Howard Government's industrial relations laws and put fair ones in their place. There are Rights at Work community groups in every state. The Victorian groups below are based in marginal electorates that will play a key role in the next federal election. However, you don’t have to live in that electorate to participate.  There are also a number of regional groups run by keen volunteers.

All the groups are keen to welcome new members aboard. You can be as active as you like. Each group takes concrete actions to oppose the Howard Government’s IR laws. These range from holding community BBQs, seminars and picnics, to leafleting, fundraising and organising rallies.

All rights at work supporters are welcome - get active today!
