Labor will vote through $36 billion in trade deals and open the door to bipartisan agreement on a European Union-style pan-Asian deal despite growing protests from the union movement.

Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese and Labor's trade spokeswoman, Madeleine King, on Monday secured seven commitments from the government on free-trade deals with Hong Kong, Indonesia and Peru that will put limits on working holiday makers and on investor-state dispute resolution mechanisms and increase transparency on treaty making.

Rejecting union claims that he had "abandoned workers" by allowing foreigners to take positions where there were skill shortages, Mr Albanese said the deals were in the "national interest" and would create jobs for Australian workers.

But Australian Council of Trade Unions president Michele O'Neil said the deals should never have been signed or won bipartisan support.
