YOUR UNION AGREEMENT: OFFER TO GO TO BALLOT

Late yesterday afternoon, the CPSU/CSA Union Council met and unanimously passed the following resolution:

“The Council endorses putting the third offer for Your Union Agreement to a ballot of members.”

The Council’s decision was informed by the mass delegates meeting immediately prior, in which delegates indicated overwhelming support for putting the offer to a ballot of members.

What is in the third offer? 

The decision to put the offer to a member vote marks the point of “in-principle agreement”, which preserves the offer pending the outcome of the ballot.

The ballot will be conducted online, open on Wednesday 4 October 2017 and close on Wednesday 18 October 2017.

Only CPSU/CSA members are eligible to vote in this important ballot to determine your pay and conditions for the next two years. Ask a friend to join and have their say today.

What are the implications of accepting or rejecting the offer? 

Lunchtime workplace meetings will be held in a variety of metropolitan and regional worksites from next week until the close of the ballot to discuss the offer in detail and enable members to ask questions. A schedule of these meetings will be released in the coming days – please stay tuned for more details. Visit our FAQ's for more information.
