#UnionWin 📢 Today NTEU members at University of Wollongong voted YES to a strong union-backed Enterprise Agreement. A huge achievement won by members who remained steadfast in securing fair pay and better conditions for all staff.

As Alison Barnes says “Universities should be bastions of academic freedom”, the actions of CDU senior management demonstrate the pressing need for good governance of Australian Universities. nteu.info/freedom

Without urgent governance reform, unaccountable vice-chancellors will keep making terrible decisions that harm universities. FedUni management must abandon these cuts.

Our NTEU Victoria campaign to stop Federation University from cutting 200 positions is heating up this week, with our story running in regional & national media. Members have called rallies at our main campuses on April 30, May 1 & 2 to pressure management into reversing its decision

Join our esteemed panellists @alisonbarnes25, Errol Phuah, Penny Jane Burke and Gwilym Croucher as we discuss implications of the Australian Universities Accord Final Report for key stakeholders. What recommendations will be adopted, adapted or rejected by government and when?

The threat to punish casual staff for seeking to be paid for the work they have performed demonstrates the urgent need for major changes to universities' broken governance model.

Rampant casualisation has fuelled an insidious culture of exploitation in universities. Without major reform tackling governance and insecure work, shocking incidents like this will keep happening.

This is spot on: a great many of the problems facing our universities are well within the power of their overpaid managements to fix. But they choose not. The crisis in our universities is their choice.

This is an important win for Australian research. Politicians have no place interfering in grant approvals. ✊
