You did it!


You Did It – Sept 2020 (PDF version)

The CPSU NSW is very pleased to inform members that on Friday 25 September 2020, after we wrote to them earlier in the week advising we intended to make an application to the Fair Work Commission, Serco replied that it is now willing to enterprise bargain!

Make no mistake – this stunning reversal is a direct result of your participation in our petitioning cards and proof of what we can and will get done when we work together.

Enterprise bargaining will be the opportunity to improve and detail your working conditions, including rostering, leave, allowances and salary. The CPSU NSW will be negotiating on behalf of its members and its members only, so if your colleagues want to have a say, tell them this is an important time to join.

We anticipate this process will start in November 2020, which gives us a few weeks to organise and make sure what we are asking for is relevant to you.

As a member, you will receive in the mail in mid-October a survey about what your views are on particular issues and what you most want to see improved.

Also the CPSU NSW will be holding two onsite breakfast BBQs in the staff car park to celebrate this win on Wednesday 14 and 28 October. If you are starting or finishing a shift that morning, please come by and say hello!

There has never been a better example of the strength in a union, and now we can look forward to working with and for you to achieve improvements in your working lives.
