Union launches blitz against Qld govt

Written By Unknown on Minggu, 23 Desember 2012 | 11.51

QUEENSLAND'S public sector union has launched a $500,000 advertising blitz attacking the Newman government.

Together union secretary Alex Scott says the advertisements, which will appear in newspapers and online, aim to persuade voters to join their Working for Queenslanders campaign against the state government's cuts to public sector jobs and services.

Mr Scott says recent cuts in the health system are the final straw.

He insists the hefty advertising bill is money well spent.

"What we've seen in the last nine months is the destruction of our frontline services," he told reporters in Brisbane on Sunday.

"Working for Queenslanders is designed to hold him (Premier Campbell Newman) to account before the next election."

Mr Scott says the advertising blitz will run for about six weeks, with the potential to run longer if required.

Mr Scott also hit out at a government proposal to remove penalty rates for small business employees working on weekends or holidays.

He said the government had already stripped rights away from public servants and it was now turning its razor to the private sector.

"I don't think it's fair and reasonable that someone on Christmas day should be paid the same as someone working on any other day of the year," he said.
