Calvary not bargaining in good faith

Calvary not bargaining in good faith

Wednesday 17 December, 2025

Your HSU Bargaining Committee have sent a letter notifying Calvary of concerns that they have breached good faith bargaining requirements. Your representatives have written to Calvary because:
  • Calvary has not provided a written response to your log of claims, or the wages offer for the new proposed agreement. Without this information, HSU members cannot properly assess Calvary’s position or engage in informed and meaningful bargaining.
  • HSU has formally requested that Calvary urgently provide written responses to all claims and table its wages position.
  • Your HSU Bargaining Committee are asking members to complete an action survey to indicate the actions we are prepared to take as part of the campaign to improve wages and conditions at Calvary ACT.

For any questions or to find out more, please reach out to your Organiser Lisa Bourke on 0409744165 / lisa.bourke@hsu.asn.au, workplace delegate Amandeep Kaur, or contact your Member Services Division on 1300 478 679.
 
Do you know someone who isn’t an HSU member? Encourage them to join our Union today and have a say at work. We are always stronger when we stand together.
 
New members can join at www.hsu.asn.au/join or call 1300 478 679.
