This Labour Day, union members across Queensland are coming together to protect quality public services and secure public sector jobs.

Last year, Premier Crisafulli made a clear election promise—no cuts to public service jobs. Since then, he has reiterated his commitment to keeping these promises. But with the upcoming state budget, the future of these services is on the line.

Budget decisions are about priorities, and now is the time to ensure the government prioritises people, not cuts.

Public services are the backbone of our state. Behind every service are dedicated public sector workers who go above and beyond for Queensland communities every day. These workers deserve security, and the communities they serve deserve reliability.

Together members are making their voices heard by marching this Labour Day. The more people who show up, the louder the message: we won’t stand for broken promises or backroom decisions that jeopardise essential services. With less than two months until the state budget is handed down, this is a critical time to demonstrate our strength, solidarity, and shared values.

Join us this Labour Day in celebrating the power of public services and the people who deliver them. March alongside your colleagues, friends, and neighbours to send a clear message to the government: keep your promises and protect Queensland’s public sector. If you care about public services, community wellbeing, and job security—now is the time to act.

Together, our voices can't be ignored.
