The Australian union movement has a long tradition of standing in solidarity with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. As unionists, we believe that all workers and all people deserve to be consulted about changes in the workplace and in society that affect us – and that by speaking up collectively we can make change that benefits us all.
