Sydney Uni announced today that they will be "reconsidering the scope of [their] activities in 2025" and are now restricting hiring. After three years of massive surpluses, we're calling on Management to ensure there are no cuts to jobs!

We believe that members should be fully informed of progress in bargaining. We were the only ones speaking up about members not being shown the full clauses of what was being negotiated. Our union must do better! Find out how to vote for NTEU Fightback at https://t.co/HDrn5Tif7g

Vote [1] NTEU Fightback in the USyd elections to build a fighting, activist union. Ballots arriving in your mailbox soon📪

[FightBackSydney @SydneyFight]

We're running in the USyd NTEU elections, and here's one reason to vote for us: we don't call off strikes!
Fightback was the only group on BC to vote against cancelling the strike on 29 March 2023, a concession that undermined the momentum of our campaign.
