Thanks to all Guest Services and Contact Centre staff who filled out our recent agreement survey. We got a fantastic response! Below you can see a word cloud which represents the key things you told us in the survey.
There are many common issues that are important to staff across the ports and in the contact centre and the comments and results have helped us put together the ASU claim for the new agreement.
Australian Services Union members have considered the issues that came from the survey and we have put together a "claim" that represents what staff have told us they want in the new agreement. The claim has been voted on by ASU members so we are now ready to begin bargaining.
Our ASU claim has been sent to Virgin Australia and we are asking the company to organise dates for negotiations to commence.
Virgin has just sent out a Notice of Representation rights to staff advising bargaining is beginning. ASU members are automatically represented by our Union and do not have to do anything as you will be represented by the ASU National Negotiating Team.
If you are not an ASU member now is the time to join https://asujoin.asn.au/
If you have questions or queries our local ASU industrial staff are there to help.
