Through service-wide bargaining in 2023, the CPSU secured ground-breaking consultation rights which apply across the entire APS.

• Pre-decision consultation with employees and unions.
• Union consultative committees at the APS and agency level.
• A requirement to consult on changes to work practices, policies and procedures, major change, rosters and hours of work, all other workplace matters that have a material impact on employees.
• Clear guidance on what consultation involves.

Agencies with more specific detail in their consultation clauses have been able to retain that detail, to supplement the APS-wide clause.

Part of an exclusive series of webinars for CPSU members covering some of the key areas where members have won significant new rights and entitlements in APS bargaining. These webinars will help ensure members understand their rights under their new agreements and how to access them.
