Most Australians believe in fairness. Why then do we have creeping inequality? The answer lies in stagnant wage rises, gender pay inequity, insecure work and the lack of real opportunities for all while corporations reap large profits and executives claim record bonuses.
Australian Council of Trade Unions Secretary Sally McManus confronts these truths every day. In a new book, On Fairness, she explores the true cost of social injustice and argues for advancing Australia fair.
Meet her at the MPC’s first lunch event for 2019, join in the Q&A - and receive a complimentary copy of On Fairness from Melbourne University Press included in the ticket price.
