Cleaners Continue the Fight

For nearly six months now cleaners across Australia and New Zealand have been campaigning for wage justice.

Many cleaners struggle to stay above the poverty line so this October across Australia and New Zealand cleaners will be taking part in Anti-Poverty Week - with most focus on the UN-declared International Anti-Poverty Day (October 17) when we expect to have hundreds of people out in the streets of major CBDs.

In Melbourne on October 17 the International Anti-Poverty Day Clean Start: Fair Deal for Cleaners - community rally and march.will begin at 4pm outside the State Library (cnr Swanston St and Latrobe St).

I'm going to make an effort to join in the rally - why don't you?
