Protest Unfair AWA's

One of the competitors on the high-profile TV reality game My Restaurant Rules tried to force its workers onto AWA individual employment contracts on the weekend.

The TV show caught the bosses dudding the wages and conditions of the workforce.

And it is causing a media storm.

It is rare that such popular culture programs discuss our issues at such a crucial time.

Increasingly, on seeking employment workers have been asked to provide a workers’ compensation claims history to their potential employer.  Workers’ compensation claim histories are basic listings of injury type and date of claim. Non-compensable injuries from sporting or motor vehicle accidents are not identified.

If you think you are being under paid and your are a financial union member complete a wage complaint form and return it to the union.
