    The NTEU encourages you to seek a Review and we will provide members advocacy support through the

    Where:           Booths will be at Jane Foss Russell, Fisher and Manning

    When:            Tuesday, 01 May and Wednesday, 02 May

    Time:              8 am – 6 pm.

    In order to vote you must bring along a current student or staff card.

    If you have some time, and would like to help, the organisers are keen for people to help. Check out either the Nteu USyd or the  Save Usyd Jobs profile pages on Facebook and sign up if you are interested.

  10. Enterprise Bargaining 2012: Interim Log of Claims

    Posted 17 April 2012 by Kate Barnsley (University of Sydney)

    The NTEU has lodged our Interim Log of Claims, and last week we discussed with Management setting meetings to begin Enterprise Bargaining.

    This log was endorsed at the NTEU Members Meeting on March 21, 2012. It is just the beginning of the campaign, and we encourage all members to contact us with any other issues they would like to see included in this round of Enterprise Bargaining.

    We know too, that the Vice Chancellor and the Provost are holding work place meetings around Enterprise Bargaining. The NTEU is encouraging all members to attend these meetings and raise issues from this interim log. We especially encourage members to mention their opposition to the job cuts and to raise issues around job security and redundancy provisions.
