Get ready to vote on GSB’s offer – FSU meeting change

Voting for our new Great Southern Bank Enterprise Agreement will occur from Thursday 4 – Friday 5 September.

This is your chance to lock in the improvements FSU members have successfully negotiated (see details below).

Our union information sessions that were scheduled for 27 August will now take place next Wednesday 3 September. Please register for your preferred session (if you already registered, you do not need to re-register unless you wish to attend a different time).

Wednesday 3 september, 12.30pm (AEST)

Wednesday 3 september, 6pm (AEST)

What’s in the proposed agreement?

The offer on the table is a good one thanks to our union negotiating some solid improvements, including:

  • An 11.25% guaranteed pay rise for level 1 employees.
  • 6% guaranteed pay rise for level 2 employees, plus annual discretionary increase. This will be the first time these employees will receive a guaranteed pay rise. 
  • Strengthened consultation and transparency regarding the use of artificial intelligence
  • An obligation on Great Southern Bank to consult and provide notice on any changes to office attendance requirements
  • Paid parental leave increased from 13 to 18 weeks, plus expanded access for secondary carers.

We hope to see you online next week – and remember to cast your vote from 4 September!
