AIS Independent Schools Multi-Enterprise Agreements Approved

The new Multi-Enterprise Agreements (MEAs) have been approved by the Fair Work Commission.  The Teachers MEA and the NSW Professional and Operational Staff MEA will commence operation from 9 April 2025. The ACT Professional and Operational Staff MEA commenced from 28 March 2025.

The improved pay and conditions will be legally enforceable from the commencement date. Under the MEAs, employers must pay back pay to the first full pay period on or after 1 February 2025 as soon as practicable. Do not hesitate to contact the union if you are experiencing a delay in receiving back pay or there is any difficulty in relation to the new conditions of employment.
