Workers in South Australia are fighting for their fair share against extreme unlimited corporate greed. Our members struggle to pay their bills while generating the billions in wealth for PepsiCo. The system is broken for the working class.
Global CEO @ramonlaguarta , what’s going on? Get your act together in South Australia. PepsiCo is sending a message: you value profits & chips more than the workers who make them. Instead of meeting and fixing it, we’ve heard @PepsiCo may be targeting union members who are..(1/2)

We are starting to see the amount of money Woolworths is willing to pay to ignore striking workers' call for a fair workplace - $50 MILLION and counting Seems they saved up a lot squeezing their shoppers & workers over the last few years! #WooliesStrike theguardian.com/business/202…

Woolworths behaving as lying bullies over and over again. This strike is about safety and respect. Too many injured workers broken by an unsafe and dangerous productivity standard. Enough is enough. Abolish the standard, eliminate the risk and fix the dispute.

Organising mass solidarity action is how workers win big. Well done to Woolworth workers who have spent a decade planning this moment. You have got this!!!!!!!!!!! Union Power.
Woolworths Melbourne Liquor Distribution Centre is next! Members walked off to hold a union meeting to discuss next steps in fighting Woolworths wicked β€œFramework” that is pushing workers too hard. More warehouses still to come today!

Grill'd's 'trainee' program is a scam that enables it to pay workers as little as $14.90 per hour. Incredibly, the Morrison Government actually funded this rort through $30 million in taxpayer subsidies. So not only does Grill'd pay below the min wage, it did so with YOUR money until Labor shut the subsidy down. Just another way the Liberals, Nationals and big business work together to rip off Aussie workers.
More than 100 supporters turned out today for Australia’s first ever fast food strike. Brave workers at Grill’d in Flinders Lane Melb defied their very anti-union, anti-worker employer & walked out to protest #GrilldBurgers ongoing use of dodgy traineeship’s to suppress wages.

Woolworths is treating workers like machines in the name of β€˜efficiency.’ Timed to the second, pushed to breaking point, and profits over safety. Woolworths workers told UWU that safety could be at risk if they’re forced to work faster. Enough is enough! theguardian.com/business/202…

Workers at @GrilldBurgers work their buns off for the bare minimum wage. It’s a cost of living crisis. Stop exploiting workers. #GrilldOnStrike #GrilldBurgers

Took a sneaky break from surgery rehab to be at this first ever fast food strike! Proud to be union.

Union solidarity. PALM workers standing with local farm workers. This is what real unionism looks like.
