University Log of Claims
At the commencement of bargaining, each party tables a log of claims illustrating their proposed inclusions for the new agreements or changes to the current agreements. This provides a starting position for negotiations as each party considers the other parties’ views and possible compromises in order to ultimately reach agreement.
On 18 February 2013 the University tabled its log of claims as did the CPSU, with the NTEU already having done so in November 2012. The UWS log of claims highlights the principles which will inform and lead bargaining and these were discussed at the meeting on 18 February.
The log of claims lists a number of positive additions the University will look to include and a number of items the University would propose to review or clarify as we seek to deliver the best operational efficiencies and use of University resources, whilst still delivering benefits for staff. The current staff information sessions happening across the University (19-27 February) will provide opportunities to discuss the log of claims.
