In service-wide bargaining in 2023, the CPSU secured significant improvements to the workplace rights of First Nations APS employees.

This includes improvements to ceremonial leave, NAIDOC leave, as well as First Nations-specific improvements to entitlements like flexible work requests.

Know your rights. First Nations Employment: A CPSU Webinar

WEBINAR: Join us for an in-depth look at new and improved workplace rights of First Nations APS employees.

This is part of an exclusive series of webinars for CPSU members covering some of the key areas where members have won significant new rights and entitlements in APS bargaining.

This webinar is for members who identify as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people. It will cover improvements to ceremonial leave, NAIDOC leave, as well as First Nations-specific improvements to entitlements, such as flexible work requests.

These webinars will help ensure members understand their rights under their new agreements and how to access them.

CPSU National Secretary Melissa Donnelly, Service-Wide Bargaining Team member Jo Kerr, and Services Australia Governing Councillor Ikini Frape will provide an in-depth look at your new and improved workplace rights as First Nations APS employees.
