Good news! NTEU members have secured all UNSW staff a 19.3% pay rise, with the latest instalment of 3.5% set to be rolled out in the first pay period of July.

Achievements like this show that when we stand together, we can make a real difference.

Whether you're teaching or supporting students, managing systems behind the scenes, or building your professional or academic career, you know that working in higher education brings its pressures: including, workloads, job insecurity, restructures, and a lack of recognition. But you're not alone - and change is possible.


NTEU members have been a driving force behind every major achievement for workers at UNSW and the wider higher education sector. From exceptional paid parental leave and 17% super contributions, to securing a Senate inquiry into university governance, we campaign and achieve real and lasting improvements for staff and our students.
