The Australian Services Union is asking its members to make their views known on same-sex marriage so the union can endorse a formal position on the issue.
ASU NSW and ACT branch secretary Sally McManus emailed all ASU members across Australia on March 29, seeking their opinions.
“The ASU Executive which is made up of elected delegates from all the industries which make up the ASU, recently confirmed its support for equal rights for all and its opposition to discrimination,” McManus wrote.
“At the same time the Executive determined that it was time for ASU members to endorse a formal policy position for our union on marriage equality for gays and lesbians.
“The ASU … Executive has decided that the best way to allow the broadest possible number of members to be involved in this debate is by asking members to vote on this issue.”
The vote is being conducted through www.SurveyMonkey.com and closes on April 8.
