All HSU members at Warrigal are invited to join a special union meeting next Tuesday 17 May at 4:30pm to discuss our claims for the new enterprise agreement – see details below.

HSU members have identified several key issues for bargaining, including:

• Significantly better wages – At least 5% per year
• Improved staffing levels – To better care for our residents
• More secure work – Including contracts that reflect actual hours and shifts worked
• Fairer allowances – Including fair pay for undertaking ‘buddy shifts’

Thanks to everyone who has completed our bargaining survey and raised important workplace issues. If you haven’t filled out the survey yet, you can still have your say here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Warrigal2022

Your delegates are finalising a draft log of claims for HSU members to review and discuss. We will send this to all HSU members later this week.

All members are then invited to join a special HSU meeting next Tuesday 17 May at 4:30pm. The meeting will be online via Zoom and members can join the meeting at this link: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/85468194994 or dial in by phone at (02) 8015 6011 and enter meeting ID: 854 6819 4994.

The purpose of this meeting is for HSU members to discuss and agree on our log of claims, which will then be served on Warrigal management. These are the items that HSU members will be campaigning for in the new enterprise agreement.

If your colleagues are not yet HSU members, encourage them to join today so that they can participate in this important meeting. New members can join online at www.hsu.asn.au/join or by calling 1300 478 679.

We hope to see you on Tuesday 17 May at 4:30pm.
