About<\/h3>\n

The Union for Queenslanders<\/h2>\n

As the nation\u2019s oldest and largest blue-collar trade union representing over tens of thousands of working men and women and their families, we have worked together to build better and safer workplaces and stronger communities.<\/p>\n

Queensland workers played a key role in the formation of the Union, and Queensland is still the AWU\u2019s largest branch.<\/p>\n

Our history is as rich and complex as the industries we represent \u2013 from manufacturing, mining and civil construction to growth sectors such as health, aged care and hospitality.<\/p>\n

Whilst our reach is wide and our membership diverse, we are dedicated to the single cause of protecting and fighting for the rights of workers in their workplace.<\/p>\n

As a direct result of being part of this union, you will enjoy better wages, benefits and working conditions.<\/p>\n

Most importantly, as a member of the AWU you’ll have a voice on the job \u2013 you can participate in the decisions that impact your daily life.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
