Bargaining time again between #Curtin management and the #NTEU.
They've had 4 formal meetings, and management hasn't even deigned to outline what its own positions are, or could be, or responded meaningfully to the union's positions. Some of the key managers have gone on leave during these "negotiations" without delegating their responsibilities, a fact that the union was asked not to discuss.
The cynicism, and the transparent sabotage of the process, is breathtaking.
Management, why are you even here? Some of us lowly academics and professional staff are trying to run a university. Not you, apparently.

Two Union Worker victories and the beginning of what is shaping up to be a Union wide stoush over the sacking of an HSR at an Aldi store for doing her job. The two victories are the win by the NTEU National Tertiary Education Union in the Federal Court for Monash University to pay back pay to it's teaching staff and the historic win of the CPSU Members Voice by a landslide which pushed out an executive that had held on for 32 years.
