Helping members
Together members work together to win better rights at work through collective agreements and awards. You can be part of workers coming together to protect rights at work.
Knowing how to access your rights and entitlements can be confusing. Your union is here to help when you need us.
If your manager is not following the rules or you have a disagreement with a work colleague about an issue at work you have the back up of union delegates and industrial staff who can advise, assist and represent you if required.
Together members get the most up to date industrial updates, can search for answers to their industrial questions and access advice and assistance from experts through our Member Portal.

Request a Phone Appointment
On occasions, members may need ongoing industrial assistance from one of our experienced Industrial Officers. This may include assistance during investigations, administrative action, performance management, disciplinary action or workcover processes. This may include representation in industrial tribunals and courts.
We all hope we can come to work and just do our jobs but sometimes, issues arise that are difficult to navigate on your own. Delegates and industrial officers can provide a second opinion and often have a good understanding from the workers point of view.
