We’re campaigning to improve conditions for staff at the University of Technology Sydney. But it takes all of us doing a little to make big change.

We all want to find ways of contributing that are impactful, but fit with our schedules and experience.

So tell us what types of actions you want be involved in by filling in the form to the right.

When it is time to take action we will reach out to provide training, guidance and instructions on how to make an positive impact on those around you.

Current specific actions

Delivering stickers to members

We need help making sure all of our NTEU Branch members get some of our new stickers to decorate their spaces and equipment. Collect stickers from our Branch office 01.13.039 and deliver them around campus to your colleagues. It doesn’t take long, you’ll meet new people or familiar faces, and you’ll help make the campus a little more purple and more union.

Help find converted staff

160 staff have already been converted to continuing across UTS thanks to the clauses we won in bargaining.

We already know a bunch of them, but can you help us find the rest?

You might know a few already. You can help us find the rest checking in your colleagues to see if they are are finally securely employed.

Then put us in touch. We’d love to know their story and how secure employment has affected them. I know it has helped me!
