The Australian Council of Trade Unions are calling for a 5 percent pay rise for workers on minimum and award wages.

The union body says inflation has left workers on these lower wages worse off financially, even when accounting for three years' worth of increases.

Australian correspondent Murray Olds says over three million workers stand to benefit from this potential pay bump.
