Job security
Throughout the pandemic, the Australian Services Union has promoted the job security of our members by negotiating fair outcomes with employers, keeping members connected to their workplaces and by stopping job cuts. In 2020 alone, the Australian Services Union stopped 12,000 members from losing their jobs. 

Health and safety
Union workplaces are safer workplaces. We’ll help you resolve any workplace safety issue – whether it’s a physical health and safety issue or relates to stress and other mental health hazards. You should be safe at work.
