I have stopped getting any shifts and the business had to close and let staff go. I have applied for many other jobs over the past 2 weeks and have not heard back from any.

No shifts no money Need a roof over my head Need power need food Stressed anxiety

I cant pay rent and may have to fly back to New Zealand and leave my life in Australia behind with all my possessions and bills

Shut down

Have to apply for centrelink, already surviving week to week, now I have to survive for 3-4 week’s without any support.

we Had to close down the restaurant and to avoid more spreading of the virus we decided to close for takeaway as well I’m on a bridge visa waiting for the temporary visa to be approved My wife’s a kiwi and she lost her job as well. No help so far for us

Just unsure what is the future outlook of my career, too many people been let go

My work was my some source of income, and as a casual worker that income was in constant flux. Now that I’m out of work I lack the requisite documents to make a welfare claim and the phone system is overloaded. Tough times.

Lost my job totally.

I have been let go just started a new job and 1 month later this all starts

there are less tourists booking the hotel, so i have less workload. i wan t to go to university in the nest year, i need to save money, obviously, it is hard time, i just want to keep safty now.

I’m afraid because i have to pay for accommodation, food and school and without a job I won’t be able to do it

All my shifts were cut out due to the virus outbreak and I can’t find another job. I’m stuck at home with my bills still running.

I was a casual manager working in a bar in Melbourne cbd . I never applied for permanent residency due to being on a New Zealand partner visa which gave me full Working rights in oz . Now both my partner and I have been asked to stand down after our hospitality jobs were lost . Feel completely lost and in despair as neither of us have any financial entitlements in Australia and aren’t getting […]

I have been living and working in Australia under a 457 visa since 2015, my wife and I and my two children. after of government restrictions due to corona virus the restaurant I was working for has forced to closed. as a result my colleagues and I are at home without salary to date to be defined. meanwhile I must continue to pay rent, private health insurance, and public school for my two children, all […]

Because people are told to stay indoors (fair enough)… *People stupid panic buying *People self isolating *People being cautious *People afraid to go out *People have lost their jobs hence no money

Mental health worries

Work forced to shut down and all of us lost our jobs. No income nothing

Lost all my hours at both my jobs. Both places have had to cut casuals in order to stay afloat until further notice. I’m on a 417 Visa waiting for my permanent residency visa to come through and I get no financial support through either my own Irish government or the Australian. I truly feel like I’ve been forgotten in all the madness while struggling to keep food in and a roof over me and […]

I can no longer work, pay bills, buy groceries, I’m down to my last hundred dollars…. what makes it worse is I’m a New Zealander and not eligible for the stimulus package

I’m now unemployed because the restaurant where I worked wasn’t making enough with the takeaway side of things to keep the place open so they made the decision to close

Whole Bar had to close, and I am now out of work entirely.

Hotel is shutdown. No-one is working, except for bottle shop. Around 15 casuals have lost all shifts. Management (full timers) have also been stood down.

I’ve lost my shifts and have very high chances of shutting down soon.

Go let go nearly 2 weeks ago got 3 kids so times are tough

Heartbreaking no work at all

I’m financially screwed

Permenabnt Full time contract stood down

The company I work for has had to close a catering kitchen and 2 cafe sites due to weddings and events being canceled and business dropping off dramatically. We are all looking after each other and staying home now.

I’ve lot my job
