COVID19 Info

Protecting jobs and conditions

COVID19 has had a huge impact on our members.

The ASU is by your side through the toughest of times and we have achieved some incredible things working together in recent months.

We fought hard and won the biggest ever income support package for Australian workers, the JobKeeper program. For most members, we’ve locked in access to that vital income support and we continue to fight on behalf of our members who the Government has excluded from the scheme.

Industrial relations will remain a tough battleground through COVID-19 and the recovery phase and we are working hard to make sure the Government cannot unwind hard fought conditions.
