Performance Development and Review Dispute
The University continues to ignore the voices of many staff when they state that the Performance Development and Review system, in its current form, has serious flaws which need to be fixed before staff are required to complete the cycle for this year.
We need to make sure that they understand that these are the sentiments of a huge percentage of staff and that getting this wrong will cost the University dearly in terms of the good will and trust of staff.
For more information on the Union's dispute, to download the petition and to find out how else you can be involved in the campaign click on one of the links below.

Your Rights at Work
Your rights at work are summarised in the NTEU-negotiated Union Collective Agreement. It contains all of the salary, leave and other entitlements for staff employed under the Agreement. You can download a copy here.
| Your NTEU Enterprise Agreement | This is a downloadable copy of the Macquarie University Enterprise Agreement, 2006-2009. |
| Membership Dues at Macquarie | NTEU membership is calculated as a percentage of salary. This is the fairest way of making sure that cost is not a barrier to joining the union. At Macquarie, union membership for staff (unless casually employed) is 1.05 per cent of salary. |
