Protect our Penalty Rates - Join the Campaign!

The Fair Work Commission is still considering whether to cut penalty rates for the Hair and Beauty industry as Hair and Beauty Australia (HABA) is attacking Sunday and Public Holiday rates for full-time, part-time and casual hairdressers. It's time to ramp up the pressure!

This comes after 700,000 retail and hospitality workers had their penalty rates cut, which has done nothing to increase jobs for workers like they said it would.

They are proposing to cut Sunday pay from double time to time and a half, and Public Holiday pay from double time and a half to double and a quarter.
Hairdressers are already one of the lowest paid trades.

Our message to HABA: If you want hairdressers to work on Sunday’s and Public Holidays – don’t pay us less!

Why is this important?

Hairdressing is already one of the lowest paid trades. This proposal by HABA would be a kick in the guts hairdressers just don’t need, particularly when pay is already so low.

HABA is a powerful lobby group that represents salon owners. It’s time hairdressers made their voice heard! Make your voice count and sign this petition.
