In case you missed it – the Federal Government has heard the calls from ASU members for action and have announced a Parliamentary Inquiry into Local Government jobs and services. 

Local Governments across the country are facing extreme financial pressures and underfunding which is resulting in outsourcing, reduced services, and an overall erosion in the quality of local jobs and services. As local government workers, your voice matters and your involvement in this process is crucial. As the union for local government workers, we will work together, with you to ensure that this Inquiry leads to meaningful improvements to local government jobs and better support for our vital Local Government services.

Key bargaining and campaign updates across the industry will also be covered.
