The re-election of the Howard Government means a renewed attack
on job security and workers' rights. Unionists face victimisation as
employers move to strip awards and destroy working conditions. A
panel of speakers will relate their experiences in the battle against
discrimination, casualisation and union-busting and discuss strategies
to preserve the right to a secure, long term job.
