The ASU are pleased to advise that employees at Maurice Blackburn have overwhelmingly endorsed the Maurice Blackburn Employees’ Agreement 2021 negotiated by the ASU’s national bargaining team.
99% of staff who voted said ‘YES’ to approve the proposed Agreement. This is a ringing endorsement for the deal negotiated we negotiated together as a union.
ASU members have worked hard to secure a fair increase to pay and conditions for ASU members at Maurice Blackburn. The 99% approval vote shows the power of the ASU membership at Maurice Blackburn.
The delegates on the national bargaining team deserve a huge thank you. They all put a huge amount of time and effort into these negotiations.
What’s next?
The ASU will work with management to prepare the paperwork for the approval of the Agreement by the Fair Work Commission. We will keep you updated as this process moves forward.
As part of the deal, the ASU made sure that Maurice Blackburn will backdate pay rises to 1 October 2021. These payments should be applied in your next pay run.
