Thank you to all members who attended the CPSU NSW’s Zoom meetings on Thursday 18 June 2002 on Enterprise Bargaining.
CPSU NSW Assistant Secretary Troy Wright addressed the two meetings, explaining the bargaining process, with the key points being:
The Copied State Award remains in place for five years after transfer of 3 November 2017 or unless an Enterprise Agreement is made before the expiry of the five years.
Your wages and conditions under the Copied State Award remain in place until a new Enterprise Agreement is agreed to by staff and the union.
The CPSU NSW automatically represents all workers in Group Homes during the bargaining process.
The CPSU NSW’s will be bargaining to maintain and improve the pay and conditions of the Copied State Award.
Consultation with CPSU NSW members is critical throughout the bargaining process. The CPSU NSW will continue meet with members throughout bargaining.
A survey has been sent to all members asking to identify the conditions of employment that are most important. The survey results will help develop the union’s log of claims. The survey can be filled out HERE.
A short video from the CPSU NSW on Enterprise Bargaining can be viewed HERE.

At this meeting questions were raised about rostering principles. A separate Bulletin has been sent to all members on this issue and can be read HERE.
