Bargaining for a new Enterprise Agreement is about to commence. As an ASU Member, you are automatically represented by the ASU in this process. Please let us know your priorities by completing this short, confidential survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/XL6NQRQ
These results will help the ASU bargaining group come up with a log of claims that is relevant to you and across Goulburn Valley Libraries.
This is our chance to get new clauses into your Enterprise Agreement to address important issues and protect the things in life that matter – your jobs, income, families, community and health, safety and wellbeing.
