AMES agreement update
- The AMES rollover agreement has now successfully passed through the employer voting process. The vote indicated 100% support for the rollover agreement from teachers who voted.
- AMES will submit the agreement to the Fair Work Commission (FWC) for final approval, and then all teachers will receive the incremental pay increases.
- Bargaining for a full replacement agreement will commence once the FWC has approved the rollover agreement. Members will be kept informed of bargaining updates, and about how to form a log of claims, through meetings later in Term 1 and early Term 2.
