A better way to bargain

With most agency agreements set to expire after July next year - and the Government developing plans to streamline bargaining arrangements - now is the time for union members to get organised and have their say.

Have you signed the pledge yet?

Following the strong response to our recent survey about problems with the current agency bargaing system, we are calling on the Government to begin negotiations with unions on a fairer and more streamlined system for setting pay and conditions across the APS.

You can support the next stage of the Better Way to Bargain campaign in your workplace by distributing, signing and returning the Better Way to Bargain pledge.
