International Women's Day - March 8th

By Jeannie Rea. Saturday March 8th is International Women's Day.
On this day, unions celebrate the achievements we have made over the years to improve the lives of working women and also point to what still remains to be done.
NTEU supports IWD, and is using the day to highlight the fight still ahead of women in attaining gender equality in the workplace.
