Union Brings Woolworths to the Party

Today we are featuring the ground breaking grass-roots work being done by the National Union of Workers. The NUW had two enormous wins this week – not only did Woolworths warehouse workers win a 4% pay rise but the Union’s work on fair pay and conditions in the fresh fruit and vegetable supply chains in Australia have also borne fruit in a separate agreement with Woolworths going into Christmas. The NUW campaign started with organising at the grass-roots. We hear from some of those migrant workers who became worker champions of the Union.
