SOCIAL MEDIA TRIBUTE
We at the United Workers Union were so saddened to hear of the passing of our friend and comrade, Patrick Mullen.
He was integral in building the first significant multi-employer industrial standard in the Victorian security industry (which we called Safeguard). Over a number of years, Patrick worked with other union leaders to steadily improve the value and respect attributed to security officers in Victoria and many security officers benefited from Patrick’s tireless efforts – in terms of the recognition they began to receive for their work and in their pay packets.
When the fight needed to be had, Patrick didn’t hesitate. But mostly, he won for his comrades with his indefatigable persistence, impeachable integrity and his irresistible charm.
Patrick served on the Branch Executive and Council at United Voice Victoria (now UWU) for many years. He worked with others to protect the union from attacks by conservative government and chart a course to success.
Workers only win when we get together and stick together. But we need leadership too. Patrick was one such leader.
We at UWU will miss our friend Patrick, but his legacy lives on in our continued fight for recognition and respect, and he will never be forgotten.
Feel free to drop condolences messages and prayers for the family and friends of the deceased as it will go a very long way at this difficult time of theirs.
