GREENLEFT TV: Cleaners rally at Westfield

Around 50 shopping centre cleaners and their supporters rallied on July 13, outside the Westfield Head Office in Market Street here to demand a better deal on pay and conditions. The protesters chanted, "Hey Westfield, listen up! The cleaners are standing up!" and, "What do we want? Clean Start! When do we want it? Now!"

They were also protesting an assault on a union organiser at an earlier protest outside the building the previous day.

United Voice is seeking public support for the campaign via an online petition: http://www.cleanstart.org.au/how-can-i-help.
