In May 2026 we've started bargaining campaigning and negotiating for fair yearly pay rises and better conditions, for the benefit of all professional and academic staff at our university.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

You can help by adding your name to this Statement.<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

We need to show UOW management that a strong majority of UOW staff agree. This is a UOW value in action that we all want to see.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
