Today’s the start of a new financial year, and a number of changes that benefit workers – and workers' wallets – have come into effect.
In just over one week, millions of workers across Australia will start to see a boost to their pay packets and increased safety in their workplaces.

Today, on International Workers’ Memorial Day, we honour workers who have lost their lives at work, and recommit ourselves to making workplaces safe for all workers.
