MWC Solidarity Hour series

The MWC "Solidarity Hour" series aims to build capacity in migrant communities and community service organisations to address issues related to labour exploitation among migrant workers.

They are short online sessions facilitated by expert trainers. The sessions include group discussion, Q&A, and hand-out resources.

Victoria's Owner Driver Contractor Laws

What do the laws mean for owner driver contractors? What is an owner driver contractor? Where to get more information and support?

This training session is an opportunity to learn about the owner driver contractor laws, understanding rates and running costs, protection for contractors, and how to report a business breaking the rules.

This training is for emerging migrant and refugee community leaders, activists and volunteers, bicultural workers, and community service providers assisting migrant workers and their community members who are engaged as contractors in the transport industry.
