PSA Women
A woman's place is in her union
Women have always had an important role in the union movement, organising together to improve our working lives. While we have come a long way, there is still more campaigning needed and change to be made.
By getting involved with our network you can:
- Connect - You will meet like-mind union women from all across the SA Public Sector
- Develop new skills - by attending our events and training, there will be opportunities to build your advocacy skills and expand your knowledge of gendered issues in the workplace.
- Make an impact - Your participation will help ensure that there is a gendered lens on our union campaigns, advocacy and lobbying.
