Whilst retail members have received 5 years employment protection following our Stop the Sell Off campaign, we now face another battle with the O’Farrell government.
The best way to ensure that we can find all retail workers jobs in this industry is to keep it in public hands.

It's time to tell Barry O'Farrell to keep his hands off the electricity industry and to keep his promise to the NSW electorate.
