The National Tertiary Education Union asked members for the three things that most worry them at work.
It’s for the union’s submission to the O’Kane Accord. They responded,
* insecure work (both casual and fixed term)
* escalating workloads
* university governance
The union now wants to know what members think about a National Higher Education Future Fund, “designed to reduce insecure work and cement the long-term sustainability of the sector.
The idea is to, “provide public universities with grants to address insecure work and workloads, as well as future-proofs the sector against further global shocks” that and, improve teaching and research and deal with “workload intensification”
