“The whole time I was a union leader, we had to put up with John Howard and Tony Abbott attacking workers' conditions. I'm proud of being a moderate trade union official, working co-operatively between employees and employers. I'm interested in better wages for workers, better safety, job security, and, profitable companies, because I understand that if you get co-operation in the workplace, everyone wins.” IfsWholeJobsWinningCompanyLeaderConditionsSecurityProudSafetyTradeUnionsWorkersOperationsOfficialsEmployeeWorkplaceWagesModeratesEmployersAttackingProfitableTrade UnionsEmployees And Employers Author:Bill Shorten
“What really matters in a workplace, what helps an employer if you've got a unionised workforce is if your shop stewards know the rules of the game, if your safety reps are taught to be able to examine situations to make sure the workplace is more safety. Better informed delegates, better workplace safety saves companies money. Unions are very good at safety. We are good at teaching delegates how to resolve disputes.” IfsKnowsMatterHelpingAbleGamesCompanySituationTeachingTaughtSafetyUnionsVery GoodShopsResolveWorkplaceDisputesEmployersWorkforceDelegatesStewardsRules Of The GameWorkplace Safety Author:Bill Shorten
