 EB6 – Directives for further strike and work bans

On 10 July a Members’ Newsflash was sent to all schools.  This Newsflash, “EB6 – Directives for further strike and work bans”, provides vital information around the following:

• strike directives and dates
• work bans
• negotiations
• media campaign.

This Newsflash can also be accessed on the QTU website:  www.qtu.asn.au/newsflash.

Media campaign

As part of the ongoing EB6 media campaign, there will be a QTU advertisement in the sports section of the Courier Mail on Wednesday 15 July (State of Origin Day).  This ad focuses on Principals’ salaries.

Work bans

For more detailed information on work bans, principals and members can access the QTU website:  www.qtu.asn.au. 

There will be a section on the website from tomorrow (15 July) that provides information that will clarify many of the questions that will arise around work bans.  This section of the website will be constantly updated.

Once again we would like to thank principal members for their commitment and efforts in supporting the EB campaign.
