Contribution policies

We welcome contributions to the Open Labor website. Send them through our email us form or upload your file form.

We want to hear from all ALP members and supporters who have views about how to reform, open up and grow the party, what it should stand for, and what ideas and policies it should be taking up.

We accept articles and responses to articles. Pieces should usually be no longer than 700-1000 words, responses shorter. We’ll review all contributions before posting, and reserve the right to make editorial changes for brevity and clarity.

We are looking for good ideas and sharp thinking, expressed in a respectful way. It’s OK to be critical and tough, but play the ball not the opponent.

The author retains copyright, but we may use published material for our purposes. If you think your contribution has been mistreated, email the Open Labor Communication Group requesting a review.

By submitting material to Open Labor you agree we may store it on our server indefinitely. If you have published the material elsewhere first, please provide the url.

All articles and responses must carry the author’s name. A head shot photo, a sentence or two of your bio, a Twitter username etc. would also be valuable.

Contribute to Open Labor.  All contributions will be reviewed before posting. 

Send contributions through our email us form or upload your file form.
