Your HSU Bargaining Team met with Aurora management on 31 July.

Aurora has provided an updated draft enterprise agreement, which your HSU Bargaining Team is currently reviewing.

Aurora has also provided an updated response to your log of claims, which includes:

• HSU Workload Management Clause
• HSU participation in orientation of new employees
• 5 days Union Delegate Leave
• Vicarious Trauma training available to all staff through Kineo training module

While this is a positive step forward, the current 2.75% per annum wage increase does not keep up with the growing cost of living.

Now it’s up to members to determine if this offer is up to scratch.

You can view Aurora’s ‘Total Package’ at this link.  

This is your enterprise agreement, so it’s vital to have your say. Please provide feedback by Friday 16 August to HSU organiser Eileen McEvoy via email [E-Mail not displayed] using subject line Aurora EBA. The next scheduled meeting with Aurora is Tuesday 20 August.

If we want Aurora to increase their current wage offer, it is going to take everyone being active in their workplace and exercising our collective power. The first step is growing the union – by sharing this newsletter with your colleagues and talking to them about joining today.
