We work for the rights of all Australians to dignified welfare and employment.

Workers who are unemployed or in insecure work struggle against three major attacks:

1. Lack of jobs -- Dozens of people competing for every job vacancy
2. Low rate of welfare payments -- $500 per fortnight below the Henderson poverty line
3. Punitive system of fines and activities from Centrelink and job agencies.

A decent social safety net is in the interest of ALL workers.

The Australian Unemployed Workers' Union (AUWU) welcomes all workers, whether unemployed or in part-time or full-time employment, whether you are retired, disabled, or studying.
