I’m sure that I don’t need to tell you that I dismiss the question that we are to address as absurd. In fact I think that unions will be increasingly relevant and important to people.
In summary these are the reasons why:
- The right to organise in a union and to collectively bargain lie at the heart of advancement for working people
- These rights are democratic rights, and unions are essential institutions in democratic societies
- Unions stand and fight for important values as well as democratic rights
- Unions have helped shape the Australian political, economic and social environment, and will continue to do so
- Unions have high levels of support within the community
- Unions are modernising to meet the demands of rapidly changing workplaces
- The industrial relations changes the Howard Government is making will mean that unions will be even more important and relevant.
