These achievements are built on the contributions of passionate and dedicated staff. We are rightly proud of the work we do. But to do our best work, we need secure jobs, a healthy balance between work and personal lives, fair workloads and respectful, inclusive workplaces. Better workplaces make better universities.
In 2022, NTEU members from across the country are campaigning for working conditions that will make our universities better places to work and study. Will you stand with us?
