On 6 March, we took to the streets to once again draw attention to the fact that Tasmanian workers are the only workers in Australia that do not have Easter Sunday as a Public Holiday. Every worker in every other Australian State or Territory can spend Easter with their families and friends, but not Tasmanians.
This is unfair, and we have called on the Tasmanian Government time and time again to legislate Easter Sunday as a public holiday. But again and again, they have refused to bring Tasmanian workers into line with the rest of the nation.
Despite this, we remain steadfast in our commitment to advocating for public holiday justice in Tasmania. Our ongoing campaign, Make Easter Sunday a Public Holiday in Tas, is a testament to this dedication. The fight continues as we strive for legislation that recognises the importance of family time for us and our families in Tasmania.
