Exciting workplace news, we seem to have reached an in-principal agreement on our EBA again (after the previous agreement unravelled a couple of months ago when our employer decided the agreement was different to what the unions and mediator all thought it was). It's still not great financially (thanks govt. for the 3% cap, really helps when inflation has been about 12% since the last pay rise a couple of years ago) but better than nothing. By the time it gets through the drafting and voting procees etc. is will probably be Sept. or Oct. before we actually get anything, but the sign on bonus and about 6 months back pay should make for a nice birthday present this year.
