Gay and Lesbian ASU Members (GLAM) is a network of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender members campaigning on equality, gender and human rights issues. In particular, GLAM's focus is centred on discrimination, harassment/workplace bullying and equality in superannuation benefits. GLAM was formed nationally by a resolution of the ASU National Conference in 1998. Since then GLAM networks have been established in every ASU branch, and our presence has been felt across the country at pride marches, union rallies and even in the annual Mardi Gras parade. The ASU was the first Australian union to establish a forum for the encouragement of gay and lesbian member involvement in the life of the union. The ASU's pioneering and important activities have been recognised by the wider union movement, with GLAM taking out the Best Recruitment Campaign award at ACTU Congress 2000. To register your interest in keeping in touch with GLAM activities contact GLAM Convenor Zoe Kennedy.
