A bargaining claim outlines changes you want made to your current pay and conditions. This bargaining claim was drafted from surveys of, and discussions with, staff. It was finalised from further discussions and feedback from staff in DVA nationally. Once endorsed, it will be given to management and we will commence negotiations on behalf of all DVA staff.
Do you want DVA to say “yes” or “no” to fair pay, decent conditions, and your rights at work?
