End Sexual Harassment at Honey BirdetteWorkers at Honey Birdette deserve a workplace that’s free from bullying, harassment and sexist standards. In 2015, Honey Birdette workers launched the Not Your Honey campaign and won a WorkSafe investigation into the sexual harassment and bullying at Honey Birdette. Seven years later, harassment and bullying at Honey Birdette boutiques is as bad as it has ever been. Employers have a duty to provide a workplace free from sexual harassment and gendered violence but clearly Honey Birdette’s Directors are providing an environment that enables sexual harassment.6,176 of 7,000 SignaturesCreated by Claudia, former Honey Birdette worker

Open Letter: SAFE SPACE FOR BIPOC AT UTSThere is a high population of students from a variety of ethnic and migrant backgrounds who deserve a safe space to feel supported and validated in their time on campus. The introduction of a safe space for the Ethnocultural Collective would allow students of colour the chance and space to discuss, dissect and reflect on their experiences by connecting with other students who face similar barriers and difficulties. This would also allow space for students of colour to raise awareness among students and pointing them towards processes of resolve in the face of discrimination and utilise the complaint system that is currently existent, but not particularly accessible or efficient.

ACTION NOT FRUIT - Reform Respect.Now.AlwaysIn 2021 only 4 people utilised the support services provided by UTS for survivors of sexual assault and harassment. Based on information gathered by the UTS Women’s Collective, the number of students who had undergone sexual violence in 2021 is much higher than this number. This means that students are, not aware of, distrustful of, or unable to access the support services provided by the university. Student survivors petitioned in 2021 for greater supports and for Respect.Now.Always to stop trivialising their experiences through insensitive fruit puns, however these concerns were not met with any response. The university is not fulfilling its duty of care to these students and it must listen to do better.68 of 100 SignaturesCreated by UTS Women's Collective

Postpone ACU Return to CampusIn 2022, the COVID-19 pandemic shows no signs of disappearing and presents more risks to health and safety than ever before. New variants like Delta and Omicron are tearing through our community and workplaces. With the risk of workplace transmission ever-increasing, we need strong measures to keep COVID-19 as far as possible from spreading within our university community. As numerous examples have shown, an outbreak at a workplace like ours where there are so many individuals coming and going can have disastrous consequences. Teaching delivery and research can be disrupted or even halted entirely, but the worst effects will be felt by us, the workers. We ask that ACU takes steps to limit the impact by consulting staff and implementing sensible measures. ACU senior management has arbitrarily set February 14 as the date for staff to return to campus. However, they have failed to undertake genuine consultation with staff regarding the potential risks associated with the return to campus and how these risks may be controlled. This has been highlighted by the fact that the University only released its COVID Risk Assessment document for consultation on February 10, just two business days prior to the return to campus.108 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Lisbeth Latham

Labor Must Oppose the 'Religious Discrimination Bill'These proposed laws seek to entrench discrimination and vilification of LGBTQ people, as well as women, people with disabilities, and single parents, on the pretext of religious freedom. The bill will: 1. Override state laws to allow any person making a ‘statement of belief’ to discriminate against queer people, women, and people with disabilities. 2. Allow religious schools to discriminate at the point of enrolment against queer students, and continue to discipline and fire queer teachers - under the guise of 'religious freedom'. 3. Prevent public health services from ensuring patients aren’t discriminated against by health practitioners exercising ‘religious freedom’. 4. Prevent universities from requiring students to meet professional standards if they object to them on religious grounds Federal Labor has made only the mildest of technical recommendations to reform the current draft of the bill, failing to address some of the most damaging aspects of the legislation. As Labor members, we are asked to finance, volunteer for, and otherwise fight with our MPs for our rights as working people. Our party is failing to stand up for our values, and for vulnerable communities, by supporting this bill.1,678 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Young Labor Left NSW

Pay pharmacists fairly for their role in the fight against Covid-19Australia's pharmacists were chronically underpaid before the Covid-19 pandemic hit, but with the added pressures brought by the health crisis, more are now burnt out than ever before with many opting to leave the profession. Until pay rates increase, the industry will struggle to retain and attract professionals, increasing the already significant skill shortage.159 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Professionals Australia

RATs को सभी के लिए मुफ्त और सुलभ बनाओयूनियनों और व्यवसायों ने स्कॉट मॉरिसन से अक्टूबर में RATs को मुफ्त बनाने का आग्रह किया था। वह कार्रवाई कर सकता था लेकिन उसने कुछ नहीं किया। ब्रिटेन और अमेरिकी सरकारों ने पहले ही रैपिड कोविड परीक्षणों को अपने नागरिकों के लिए मुफ्त और सुलभ बना दिया है। एक बार फिर, ऑस्ट्रेलिया स्कॉट मॉरिसन की वजह से पीछे रह गया है। अगर आपको फार्मासिस्ट के पास सौभाग्य से RATs मिल गया तो एक RAT किट का मूल्य $20 तक हो सकता है। यह खर्च पांच लोगों के परिवार के लिए $100 है। यह प्रधानमंत्री के लिए छोटी सी बात हो सकती है, लेकिन यह कई परिवारों के लिए चिंता का विषय है। जब मॉरिसन को पूछा गया कि क्या वो RATs ज़रूरतमंद लोगों के लिए मुफ्त करेंगे तो उन्होंने सुझाव दिया कि यह सरकार का काम नहीं है। जब एक पत्रकार ने विशेष रूप से मॉरिसन को बताया कि "हर कोई RATs का खर्च नहीं उठा सकता है", तो पीएम ने निष्ठाहीन उत्तर दिया, "कुछ लोग कर सकते हैं, कुछ लोग नहीं कर सकते हैं"। हम मॉरिसन की उपेक्षा और असक्षमता को बर्दाश्त नहीं कर सकते। हम सरकार से मांग करते हैं कि RATs को मुफ्त और सुलभ बनाया जाए। --- हम हिंदी भाषा में जानकारी देखने के आपके अधिकार का सम्मान करते हैं। हम अधिक जानकारी हिंदी भाषा में उपलब्ध कराने के लिए प्रयास कर रहे हैं। --- एस मैकमैनस, ACTU सचिव, 365 क्वीन स्ट्रीट, मेलबर्न 3000 : द्वारा अधिकृत139,641 of 200,000 SignaturesCreated by Australian Unions

Make Universities as safe as possible for staff and studentsThe Palaszczuk Government has failed to provide direction to universities to ensure a safe and healthy university sector in Queensland. As a result, Vice-Chancellors have made different plans at different universities, creating confusion and inequity and placing staff and students at risk. We need Queensland Health and the Department of Education to sit down with the NTEU and university managements to come up with a uniform plan to make Universities as safe as possible. All university staff, students and their families should sign this petition.395 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Mike Oliver

Wheelchair Access in Public SchoolsCurrently in Australia, a Royal Commission is looking into the shocking cases of violence, abuse, neglect and exploitation of people with a disability and Inclusive Education has been recommended during the hearings, utilising the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, Article 9 and 24 (see reference below). These UN Articles can’t be properly implemented in our public schools unless we provide access to people who use wheelchairs. 15-20% of people in Australia have a disability. It makes sense to include disabled people in our community - we are not going away! If you have an understanding of inclusion and don't believe in segregation in our public schools, please sign this petition and share it so we can make this change for our future generations to learn to accept diversity from the time they start school. Thank you for sticking up for those who might be a little different you! Remember - it could be you next who might need to use a mobility device and need to be included... https://www.un.org/development/desa/disabilities/convention-on-the-rights-of-persons-with-disabilities/convention-on-the-rights-of-persons-with-disabilities-2.html https://disability.royalcommission.gov.au/36 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Andrea Wildin

Bring back Endometriosis Surgery in SAPeople with endometriosis in South Australia are suffering without excision surgeries, the only gold standard treatment for endometriosis which have been cancelled or moved indefinitely. Sufferers have done the right thing and have waited months or years for their diagnostic or further treatment surgeries and have now been left in the dark. Having endometriosis isn’t a CHOICE, and the surgery isn’t an elective one but an essential one to be able to live. We know that endometriosis kills and can severely impact internal organs if left untreated. Please bring some light to people suffering with this debilitating condition.210 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Arabella Wauchope
