Aotearoa is standing up for pay equity.
We know it makes no sense to suppress wages for people like support workers, library assistants and hospital administrators.
New Zealand women need you to keep the pressure on and demand the Government restore the claims, undo their damaging law changes, and deliver full settlements to all workers left waiting.
Here's how you can help:
Go to the Protect Pay Equity hui
If you're in Wellington, join us on Budget Day to show the Government we don’t accept their Budget coming at the cost of fair pay for health, education, and community workers.
When: 1-2pm, Thursday 22 May
Where: Parliament Lawn, Wellington
Bring your whānau, bring your friends, your signs and your PSA merch if you have it. We've organised walking buses to the hui:
We’re looking at holding a sign-making event before the big day too – watch this space and our social media pages for details.
Other events around motu
Other hui and rallies are happening across the country. See the Council of Trade Unions (CTU) website for all the details:
Sign the petition
Unions have launched a petition calling on the Government to:
- Reverse all claim cancelations
- Undo Equal Pay Act changes
- Deliver pay equity
Add your voice to the tens of thousands of people who've whole-heartedly rejected the Government's changes:
