A massive win for workers. Union members were there on the ground at the Fair Work Commission today fighting to make this change for the young people across Australia!

So what about apprentices doing more labour than all the jobs listed in the video combined (no hate to these jobs) but we literally bust our backs for someone else to get payed less than $20 an hour, meanwhile you can get a 16 year old with 0 experience as a labourer on $30 an hour and it’ll go up and soon enough be at $40s, meanwhile tradesman have to wait 4 years for a decent pay rise, which still doesn’t compare to the work and time we’ve put in for others

Im sorry what about the young people who live by themself and have to provide for themself? If you guys care about teens so much then actually care about them. Im one of the people who are 17 and struggling
