WorkChoices. Never Again in Stirling

Today’s Liberal leader Tony Abbott was a key Minister in the former Liberal Government that introduced WorkChoices. Now, he wants to bring it back. He just won’t call it WorkChoices.

We need to go forward on workers' rights, not backwards to the Liberals' new version of WorkChoices.

At this election, the "Your Rights at Work" team will be targeting the federal electorate of Stirling. On this page you'll find:

  • A summary for the federal electorate of Stirling
  • Contact details for your campaign coordinator
  • Materials to download and
  • A sign up form to help out with local campaign activities
