THE UNION FOR ACADEMIC STAFF
Defend your profession. Shape the future of your institution.
As academics, we’re researchers, teachers, supervisors, mentors, and public intellectuals. We generate knowledge, guide students, and contribute to the social, cultural, and economic fabric of our communities. But our work is under constant pressure – from insecure employment to unsustainable workloads, shrinking autonomy, and the creeping corporatisation of the sector.
Joining the NTEU is how we fight back – not as individuals, but collectively.
And importantly, we don’t do it alone. Our union brings together all university workers – academic and professional staff alike – because it’s our shared effort that makes a university function. We work side by side with professional colleagues every day, and we organise together to win real change.
We’re organising around 5 key areas
