Proposed Enterprise Agreement

The University has conducted a ballot of eligible employees on the proposed Charles Darwin University and Union Enterprise Agreement 2018 (the Agreement).

Voting opened on Wednesday 3 October 2018 and closed at midnight on Thursday 4 October 2018.

Of the eligible votes cast, the majority voted in favour of making the Agreement and the University will now lodge the Agreement with the Fair Work Commission for approval. The Agreement will not come into effect until 7 days after approval from the Fair Work Commission which could take up to 16 weeks. However, as provided for in the Agreement, the first salary increase is to be paid upon a successful employee vote. This payment will be processed in the next pay period (17/10/2018) and will be effective from 9 August 2018 to acknowledge when in principle agreement was reached.
