ASU Qantas Delegates met with Perth Administration in the regular JCC on Thursday December 11th.
The JCC seeks to resolve urgent and important issues affecting large numbers of our members. Our

Delegates devote their own time, or are taken from the workplace in order to assist members, through proper process, to resolve their issues. We take it seriously. We believe that the Perth Administration of QANTAS does not.

ASU Women’s Survey 2008-2009

The Hon Tanya Plibersek MP, Minister for Housing and Minister for the Status of Women officially launched the "Don't Be Too Polite Girls! Tell us what you really think" 2008-2009 survey for ASU women members and their co-workers at the 2008 ASU National Conference Women's Breakfast in Melbourne recently.

The survey is asking ASU women, and women who wish to join the ASU, what it is they think their Union can do, what they would like the Union to do and a range of questions about work and life, and balancing work with their lives.

Today in the Australian Industrial Relations Commission (AIRC) the ASU has defended long held penalty rates and loadings of private sector office workers across the country.

As part of the Rudd Government's award modernisation process, the AIRC is conducting consultations about their proposals for a new Australia wide "Clerks - Private Sector Award 2010".

The first draft Award, which was released in September 2008, cuts a number of hard won conditions.
