The ACTU Congress is held every three years. It is effectively a parliament for working people, where delegates debate and vote on policies regarding the workplace, rights, and campaigns to improve wages, conditions and quality of life for Australian workers and their families. This process sets the union agenda for a further three years.
ACTU Congress 2024 was held on Kaurna Country (Adelaide) at the Adelaide Convention Centre, on 4th, 5th and 6th. It was also an opportunity for the national movement to celebrate the 140th anniversary of SA Unions.
Congress 2021 was held virtually due to COVID-19. At this meeting only the essential business was discussed with other matters referred to ACTU Executive at a later date.
