Rally organiser, Hunter Workers - a coalition of 27 unions representing 70,000 workers across the region - point to previous industrial action this year as evidence of growing job security concerns.

"At least 2.5 million Australians want and need more work, and consequently are being forced to work multiple jobs or live in poverty," Hunter Workers secretary Leigh Shears said.

"Yet the Morrison government continues to ignore the insecure work crisis, instead bragging about unemployment figures that no longer paint an accurate picture of Australia's current workforce conditions."

The rally comes following a final report by the Senate Select Committee on Job Security, released Friday last week, which found job insecurity in Australia had reached "a crisis point".

The Mining and Energy Union's Robbin Williams, Australian Manufacturing Workers Union state secretary Cory Wright and Health Services Union assistant state secretary Lynne Russel will all speak at the rally in H.J. Sternbeck Park from 10.30am.

Labor Senator Tony Sheldon, who chaired the senate committee, will also be speaking.

Leigh Shears is calling for secure work to be made a focus of the upcoming federal election.

"Insecure work is linked to a multitude of issues Australians are facing today: low wage growth, poor mental health, poverty, gender inequality and the persisting gender pay gap; the list goes on," he said.

"We need a government whose priority is improving the lives of working Australians.

"We are inviting all Hunter workers to join us and have their voice heard."
