flag Australian unions demand 5-week minimum annual leave, citing outdated policy and poor work-life balance.

flag The Australian Council of Trade Unions (ACTU) is campaigning for the government to raise the national minimum annual leave from four to five weeks, arguing the current standard hasn't changed in nearly 50 years and no longer reflects modern work demands like long hours and unpaid overtime. flag Led by ACTU Secretary Sally McManus, the push highlights that Australia’s leave policies lag behind other developed nations and fail to support workers, especially parents managing school holidays. flag The union says the change would improve work-life balance and align labor standards with today’s realities.
