Voting commences on Friday to endorse the proposed extension and variation of the NHVR On Roads Enterprise Agreement.
Key features of the proposal are;
- 3% pay rises per year
- A $1500 sign on bonus
The rest of the Agreement remains largely unchanged. This is because the ‘extend & vary’ process does not involve a full negotiation. Instead we are just extending the existing Agreement.
The ASU recommends that members vote ‘yes’ to endorse this proposal. It is a strong outcome for all staff, and would not have been possible without ASU delegates and members.
The initial offer from Management was for 2.5% pay rises, and a $1000 sign on bonus. But Union members held strong, and because of that we were able to achieve a better outcome.
All staff will receive a text message on Friday with voting details, and voting will remain open until February 4th.
