Ep.102: The ACTU Congress with Scott Connolly

Dunn Street founder Stephen Donnelly was joined by Assistant Secretary from the Australian Council of Trade Unions, Scott Connolly.

Scott discusses the ACTU’s first virtual congress, and how the ACTU’s pushed the federal government into introducing Job Keeper and the need for Job Keeper 2.0.

Scott also talks about the growth in union membership in various sectors, the fight to organise and advance wages and conditions for the expanding gig economy, and how unions are tackling global multinationals on Australian soil.
