Introduction
Australia’s first digital union, Hospo Voice, set up Fair Plate so you can see what’s really happening under the table. Hospitality staff have left thousands of reviews to show you which places are stealing wages and treating people like crap.
Tim Petterson from United Voice presented as part of the ‘Up Your Digital Game’ workshop at Progress 2019, Australia’s largest social change conference. He shared how his organisation optimised a tech solution to empower hospitality workers.
