This week I am participating in another week-long strike at the University of Melbourne. This time it’s a campus-wide 6.5-day strike - the longest ever undertaken at an Australian university. It will also be the longest strike on the Parkville campus since stonemasons downed their tools in 1856 to win an eight-hour workday.

Unfortunately, this industrial action is necessary due to management's prolonged refusal to satisfactorily address our union’s key claims.
