Results are in: #ANU ranks 5th worst in terms of psychosocial risk among universities. #UniCanberra doesn't fare much better.
@nteunion.bsky.social endorses recommendations including continuing monitoring & more funding to stop job losses & excessive workloads.
Big concerns on redundancy & org change in #UniCanberra Bargaining as we push for better job security.
@nteunion.bsky.social members also deserve a pay rise & can't wait until January!

Staff at ANU need fair pay, secure jobs, safe workloads and workplaces that put staff wellbeing first. By uniting with purpose, we can make our universities better places to work and study. nteu.info/anusurvey
Things are looking up at #UniCanberra.
UC staff have put in the hard work to turn the University around.
The least they deserve is not to have real wages go backwards.

Now is the time to decide whether you want decisions about workloads at #UniCanberra to be made WITH you, or FOR you.
If you believe staff should have a voice in determining workloads and other key conditions, join @NTEUnion today at www.nteu.au/join. ✊
Today is a National Day of Mourning for victims of the Bondi terrorist attack. NTEU mourns the lives lost and we stand with all those grieving this horrific act of violence.
While it appears the major parties may have struck some form of agreement, and it remains unclear whether amendments to address some issues will be possible, we appreciate the opportunity and @davidpocock.bsky.social's continuing commitment to community consultation.
This was a collegial discussion attended by members of different faith groups, advocacy groups, experts, stakeholders, and Ngunnawal community elders & representatives.
There was a clear consensus that many issues require further consultation.
NTEU ACT Division Secretary Dr Lachlan Clohesy & ACT Division President Katie Ley attended.
@nteunion.bsky.social expressed concerns on retrospectivity, ambiguity, unintended consequences, and the lack of a 'good faith' defence which exists in other relevant sections of the Criminal Code.
Yesterday @nteunion.bsky.social participated in @davidpocock.bsky.social's Roundtable to discuss the Government's legislation on hate speech.
In the aftermath of Bondi, there was strong solidarity with the Jewish community and opposition to racism and discrimination, including antisemitism.
2025 proved what we can achieve together.
2026 is about going further.

✨ Dear NTEU members, thank you for everything you made possible this year. Enjoy a well-deserved break. 2026 is shaping up to be big! ✨
Good progress on some issues, but concerns remain on job security at #UniCanberra.
We're also disappointed with UC Management's response on reproductive health - see email for the full update!
To win the UC we all deserve, join @nteunion.bsky.social today at www.nteu.au/join. ✊
We reaffirm our commitment to stand against racism and discrimination in all of its forms - including anti-Semitism - and to stand against violence and hatred. These are core union values.
@nteunion.bsky.social supports the statement of @australianunions.bsky.social on behalf of our movement.
The Federal Government has an opportunity to start things off by making #ANU an exemplar of good governance. Unlike other universities governed under state or territory legislation, the ANU Act is at the Commonwealth level.
@nteunion.bsky.social
Earlier this week, we were thrilled to have Millan Pintos-Lopez, our @nteunion.bsky.social National Vice-President (Professional Staff) and NTEU #ANU Branch President, over at ##UniCanberra to be part of developing our professional staff claims for UC bargaining. ✊
🎉HUGE UNION WIN🎉
"This is a watershed moment for Australia's public universities. We now have a clear blueprint to fix burning crises like corporatisation, casualisation and wage theft.”

With the Senate report on university governance due this week, @nteunion.bsky.social's @lachlanclohesy.bsky.social writes on the current state of university governance.
"It is now clear that university councils and their executives have been acting as a law unto themselves."
Can you help @nteunion.bsky.social members at #MacquarieUni?
#ANU: No Forced Redundancies.
@westernsydneyu.bsky.social: No Forced Redundancies.
@QUT: No Forced Redundancies.
@utsengage.bsky.social: Fewer Forced Redundancies (work to do!).

More recognition of the impact of @nteunion.bsky.social members in recent times. 💜
Fantastic to see @alisonbarnes.bsky.social, our National President, recognised on this list - which is also a recognition of the collective influence of thousands of NTEU members. ✊
The worst thing about the university governance crisis is that #ANU is not an outlier.
The best thing about the university governance crisis is that it's come to light because @nteunion.bsky.social members across the country have had enough & acted together. ✊
🟣 Member Meeting today at #UniCanberra! 🟣
12.30pm - Room 9A1 and online (check email).
@nteunion.bsky.social members only, but if you're not yet a member join beforehand at www.nteu.au/join to attend.
Katie and Bethany recap bargaining, but if you want more detail, come along to the meeting! ✊
"It is difficult to think of other circumstances where individuals can cause so much damage, to both people and institutions, and be so richly rewarded." - @nteunion.bsky.social's @lachlanclohesy.bsky.social
Where is #ANU Council accountability for this golden handshake?
Former #ANU Vice-Chancellor, Genevieve Bell, will receive remuneration of more than half a million a year for the next five years - despite taking 12 months off.
For context, that's more than ANU hoped to 'save' annually by disestablishing the School of Music. 🫠 @nteunion.bsky.social
We all know how universities love their rankings... 😆
@nteunion.bsky.social members are very proud and appreciative of our National President's strong leadership in standing up for a better higher education sector. ✊
One year ago today, ANU staff resoundingly defeated a proposed variation to the ANU Agreement. Union members led this campaign to defend better pay for all ANU staff.
If you're not a member, we need you with us to take on more and bigger challenges, together. nteu.au/join
