Proud that @nteunion.bsky.social members at #UniCanberra were the first to win 17% superannuation for casual staff in an Agreement, following #UoN members winning it in an MOU. Great to hear members at #UTas have now won it in their Agreement too! ✊💜

In the last 12 months at #ANU the Vice-Chancellor resigned, the Chancellor resigned, 6 appointed ANU Council members have resigned. Important to note that the current Executive & Council are not responsible for the Bishop-Bell damage. But this is accountability, not overreach.
