Labour Day 2006 - Regional Areas

Tuesday April 04, 2006

Labour Day is always a well attended event throughout Queensland, however this year a huge turnout is expected.

This year marks the passing of the anti-worker Federal legislation and as a result the "Your Rights at Work" campaign has begun. 

Labour Day 2006 will be focused on this important campaign and will show that your rights at work are worth fighting for.
