Women and the NTEU
The NTEU is a union committed to enhancing the participation and voice of women members. Women hold positions of influence and power at all levels of the Union, are active on the Union\'s enterprise bargaining teams, and contribute to the development of the Union’s strategy.
The Union has been a leader in many areas concerning women and their professional and employment rights, and provides support for other women through the ACTU and other non-government organizations. NTEU published the first national pay equity study done in Australia, and this has encouraged a broader commitment to pay equity within the labour movement.
At a national level, the NTEU Women’s Action Committee and the annual Women’s Conference develop this work. The Union publishes an annual women\'s journal, Frontline.

Casual Staff campaign
Casual employment is growing in tertiary education, reflecting nationwide trends. More and more staff are being employed on a casual basis rather than as continuing employees. For example, between 1995 and 2005, overall university employment increased by 17%, whereas casual employment increased by 54% (Source: 2005 DEST Statistics). This has clear ramifications for those staff - clearly casuals have little job security as their employment can be terminated by their employer at any time, and usually casual employees have less entitlement to many of the benefits that continuing employees have: such as sick leave and equivalent superannuation. However, on the other hand casuals receive a 23% - 25% 'casual loading' on top of their pay to compensate for this. NTEU recognises this growth in casual employment and is developing an industrial and campaign strategy in reponse. This strategy involves two approaches: supporting current casuals through providing detailed information on casual employments rights; and augmenting the employment rights of casual employees through industrial strategy. As part of the campaign, NTEU has produced a booklet on casual employment: Smart Casuals: NTEU handbook for casual university staff. To download a copy of the Smart Casuals booklet, click on the link below.| SCU Casual Academics Survey | Please find a link to the SCU Survey of Casual Academic Staff. All casual staff at SCU, whether members or not, are invited to participate in this short, anonymous, online survey. Click Here to take survey |
