Last week we met with Natalie Strickland, Amanda Jakovac and Lewis Tassone to commence negotiations for our new enterprise agreement.
Our next step together is to endorse our Log of Claims so that we can table it at our next bargaining meeting.
From our survey we know that our priorities are better pay, greater flexibility to work where we choose and fair workloads. We are also calling for better parental leave, improved job security and increased super contributions.
