NTEU Fightback!

University workers and unionists fighting for our jobs, pay, and conditions in the Australian higher education sector.

An important statement from Sydney university comrades

[FightBackSydney @SydneyFight]

@Sydney_Uni staff are facing a serious rollback of conditions and pay after Tuesday's vote to cancel strikes and move toward settlement. How did this happen and where do we go next? Read our statement here: https://t.co/gQwlv2NhWm

Inflation is surging. Our current pay claim would likely mean a real pay cut.

Sign this letter to the NTEU National Executive requesting a special meeting of the union’s National Council to discuss increasing the pay claim.

Good new article in Labour & Industry assessing the NTEU's disastrous Jobs Protection Framework.

@DrMelOB Nothing the union could have proposed was going to stop them planning job cuts. Our union should have fought from the start. We are with you in the struggle now - solidarity ✊✊

"the protocols also forbid “anyone [from sharing] internal discussions externally.”...given the differences between the leadership& rank-and-file membership, many rank-and-file members view this as an attempt to reduce transparency& debate within the Union

[NTEU Fightback! @NTEUfightback]

@Dralia_p @Sarah_May1 @sophiec It is a good question. Just devastating, particularly after the sacrifices that staff have already made. We know a lot of good unionists in that branch who are organising resistance on many fronts, such as @rankandfileLTU, who would welcome all the support they can get ✊

[NTEU Fightback! @NTEUfightback]

Please sign/share ASAP if you haven't already. The Murdoch BC is meeting in around half an hour.

Over 500 have signed - but we need to apply all the pressure we can to stop this outrageous proposal. Union democracy is at stake - and that affects us all!

@CasualsUsyd @CUPUWorkers @CasualsMonash @UNSWcasuals @LTUcasuals @NHEANetwork Thanks comrades, spot on ✊

[NTEU Fightback! @NTEUfightback]

If the NTEU leaders get away with stifling the initiative of casual activists at Murdoch they may try it at your own branch too. This attack targets all engaged unionists.
