Our Campaigns
It’s an unfair and confusing system that costs young workers in Australia around $3bn a year - and it’s mostly pocketed by big multinational companies.
We think of an apprenticeship as making a start in a trade or industry you love – setting you on the path to a rewarding career. But these days, apprenticeships can be like the wild-west, with cowboy operators using and abusing apprentices, stealing their wages, and denying them proper training.
Past victories young workers have won together!
