Together, we fought tirelessly for better pay and conditions, winning on the things we said weren’t negotiable – decent pay, real flexibility and fairer overtime provisions. 

Here’s what we’ve won

• A 4% pay increase including back payment (which was paid to eligible team members on 17 April).
• A 1% merit increase and back payment (which was paid to all eligible team members on 19 April).
• A 3.5% pay increase (which will be paid to all eligible team members on 10 and 12 July).
• A $1000 cost-of-living payment, which will be made as soon as possible to team members earning a full-time equivalent base pay below the high income threshold (currently $167,500).
• Six wellbeing days. 
• 12 days personal/carers leave. 
• 20 weeks paid primary carers parental leave (plus four weeks for the secondary carer).

This agreement is a true reminder that when we work collectively we win collectively.
