Our union has purchased a limited number of ASU facemasks for members.
They have been really popular, so popular that we’ve had to order more and they are on their way.
We will prioritise front-facing members in the distribution of the masks.
So if you want a mask, let us know here.
Sophia works with young people in the corrections and youth justice systems at Jesuit Social Services.
Sophia's message is pretty simple, "as an ASU member for the past 14 years I am proud to be union and proud to wear the mask. Stay safe!"
If you work in social and community services like Sophia, we've got sector-specific Covid-19 information here www.asuvictas.com.au/covid-19/community-sector/

Wouldn’t be giving Yarra Plenty Regional Library too many pats on the back...even though our members are amazing and are doing such brilliant work in challenging times, management are now engaging in a “secretive” campaign to change staffs rosters and reduce their financial well being as well as their work/life balance. They are also trying to avoid consulting with the ASU!
Unbelievably, City of Casey has stood-down more School Crossing Supervisors than there are people in this photo.
250 of the lowest-paid workers at Council, stood-down without pay
And the worst part? The Victorian Government gives Casey money for these worker's wages, and that money hasn't been cut.
So Casey is profiting at the expense of 250 of its lowest-paid employees

Point is it’s not an ‘industry’ it’s a council service in which the wages have already been budgeted for. Jobseeker or council wages it’s all taxpayers money in the end ! What will the City of Casey spend those staffs budgeted wages on now ? We as taxpayers and ratepayers have a right to know !
Sack the council , the crossing supervisors are there to keep our children safe . The council is on the wrong path.
Surprising, I thought they only just finished spending money on a new set of Offices? I would have thought the right thing to do would be to honour their commitments.
Shameful! Are other councils doing this
Do the right thing by your workers Council!
Shameful City of Casey ..
If they are getting funding then they should keep them employed
I always thought they are volunteers?! Aren't they?
Shameful.
Shame!
This SUCKS big time.
Wrong!!!!!
😢
Shame
Disgraceful

You mean because there is no work and schools are shut atm? Im confused why they would still be working atm? People are being stood down in every industry. Casey is in a hotspot! Or is this seperare to covid??
Disgusting!!!
