Legal and Industrial Matters

Our industrial and legal staff are based in the Union’s Sydney, Newcastle and Wollongong offices.

The Union's Industrial Department represents the wage interests and conditions of employment for Collective Agreements.

Industrial advice and representation is also available for a range of individual matters.

If you have an individual Industrial complaint which is unable to be resolved at the local level your Union Organiser, in consultation with your local delegate, may make arrangements for your issue to be reviewed by an Industrial Officer.

AFPC 2008 Wage Setting Decision: Constitutional Corporation Update
Jul 29, 2008: Jurisdictional uncertainty regarding the question whether New South Wales local government is in the state or federal industrial relations systems remains. The USU continues to campaign for the Premier to decorporatise local government in New South Wales and to write to the Prime Minister asking him to stand by his pre election commitment to the USU and exclude local government from the federal industrial relations system. In the interim action is required to secure the 3.2% increase in wages and allowances due on 1 November 2008.
