Planned Burns Roles recognised!
Thanks to the action of CPSU Parks Members, the scope of the PWS Agreement has expanded to include planned burns roles, with backpay from 1 January 2022. This means consistency with other workers in bushfire suppression operations roles. Take a closer look at these roles in the table below. Workers will be paid the higher of the two bands.
Year-on-year CPSU members stand up for recognition of the important work they do.
