Victorian unions launch jobs campaign in manufacturing. The Victorian Trades Hall Council and Manufacturing Industry Unions issued a statement on 19 May launching a campaign on jobs in the manufacturing industry, commencing with a major rally of workers on 3 June at 10:30 am. The rally was called to take a stand on manufacturing job losses. More than 33,000 Victorian manufacturing workers have lost their jobs since 1996. "Manufacturing is a core part of the Victorian economy, and at the moment it is being badly let down by our government."
