The new face of povertyDate: 12 October 2004
An important forum on low pay, welfare and the working poor to explore the intersections between low-paid work, poverty and the welfare system. This discussion is vital, as low-paid jobs grow and as governments increasingly attempt to push families from social security into a labour market of low-paid and precarious jobs. The forum will focus on common solutions behind which the community sector, the union movement and other progressive voices can unite.
SpeakersJeff Lawrence National Secretary LHMU Margarita Murray Low-paid workers Mary Lam Policy Manager, Jobs Australia Peter Rigg Vice-President, St Vincents de Paul Victoria Chaired by Paul Smyth, General Manager, Social Action and Research, Brotherhood of St Laurence Tuesday October 19 - 9.30am to 11.30amRegistration 9.15am Father Tucker Room Brotherhood of St Laurence 67 Brunswick St, Fitzroy Forum organised by LHMU, Brotherhood of St Laurence, St Vincent de Paul and ACCER
