Dear TAFE member,
An Agreement in Principle (AIP) to replace the current 2021 TAFE General Agreement (GA) has been endorsed by TAFE Committee and the SSTUWA Executive. TAFE Committee and Executive are of the view that this proposed agreement is the best outcome which can be negotiated at this time.
It is now time for all TAFE members who will be covered by this proposed agreement to consider the detail of the offer and vote as to whether to approve the terms and conditions offered for the proposed Western Australian TAFE Lecturers' General Agreement 2023.
The voting period has now closed. TAFE members were informed of the results via eNews.
It's your future. Only members get a vote.
Your rights, entitlements and working conditions as a TAFE lecturer in WA are under negotiation.
Members decide. Join now.>>
