The SDA, the union for workers in retail, fast food and warehousing, is increasing calls for workers in the Illawarra region to be given a fair go.

SDA NSW/ACT secretary, Bernie Smith, said it’s never been more important for workers to stand together and demand a fair go at work.

“The SDA is the biggest union in NSW, and nationally has over 215,000 members in industries such retail, fast food and warehousing,” Mr Smith said.

“We have a diverse membership, but we have a lot in common – we all deserve respect and a fair go.”

That’s why the SDA has been running a range of campaigns including:

- No One Deserves a Serve – a campaign against customer abuse

- Take the Time – a campaign calling for a better work/life balance for workers

- Protect Penalty Rates – a campaign aimed at protecting our take home pay

“The SDA gets great outcomes for members – in fact, Australia’s retail workers are among the best paid in the world - but there’s still more to do,” Mr Smith said.

“The only way we’re going to improve things for workers is if we all stand together, which is why we want Illawarra workers to make sure they join their union.”
