Solving Our Employment Crisis Conference
With 11 job seekers competing for every job vacancy going by the official figures, it is clear that Federal Government must take action now to address Australia’s worsening employment crisis.
However, what exactly the Federal Government should do about this crisis is less clear.
With the aim of building toward a united position amongst interest groups, the Australian Unemployed Workers’ Union has organised a conference into solving this worsening employment crisis.
Speakers include:
Ged Kearney (President, Australian Council of Trade Unions)
Cassandra Goldie (CEO, Australian Council of Social Services)
Bill Mitchell (Academic, Centre of Full Employment and Equity)
David Thompson (CEO, Jobs Australia)
Pas Forgione (Welfare Rights Activist, Anti Poverty Network)
Kim Windsor (Disability Advocate, Windsor & Associates)Guardian Journalist Van Badham will be hosting the event.
