University of New England enterprise bargaining update – July 2017 (PDF version)
The CPSU fought hard to protect your rights and entitlements during the previous round of Enterprise Bargaining, and successfully won a total 15 per cent pay rise over the life of the Agreement.

All sessions will be held in the Immersive Conference Suite in the ITD Building. Please RSVP to Ross Bennetts to let us know you’re coming.
