At a meeting last week, CBA confirmed that it will soon be ready to commence negotiations for a new Enterprise Agreement. Whilst the dates are not known yet, we anticipate that the negotiations will formally kick off in March once the necessary notices have been sent to all employees.
CBA has also agreed to our request for paid time release for all FSU reps to meet in preparation for bargaining. At this meeting we will review what members told us was important to them from the FSU CBA EA 2023 Survey and develop the FSU Log of Claims – this is what members will be fighting for during the campaign.

Share the survey
It is important that we continue to hear from workers across CBA about what is important to them. Please continue to share the survey with your colleagues. (fsu.org.au/CBAEASurvey2023)
