I was fired because i was sick!

I worked in a fruitshop as a cashier for over 6 months had taken off a total of 3 days in that time, two sickies and a funeral. The 2 other girls i worked with had taken over 20 days of between them, they dont get so much as a warning, i take a day off and he fired me! Not only did he fire me, but demanded i continue working untill he found a new girl! Because of these new work reforms mr Coward has enforced, my rights have been violated.

I want to see if there are more stories out there, whether it be work reforms issues or other things, please let me know. Id like to combine stories and post them on. Lets see if we can finally get this pathetic little man out of the senate, government and our lives for good.

Dear Julz,
sorry to hear about your situation. Have you checked out the ACTU site ? They have a great web page you might be intersted in. http://www.actu.asn.au/ http://www.rightsatwork.com.au/

You can read about others stories and join campaigns. The site also has online forums. You might get some advice/support by talking to the other members.

Hope that this is of some help?.
hannah.
