DCDSS Together Members Update
Posted by Dee Spink on February 5, 2020
EB and $1250 payment update
After the successful ballot of Together members on the much-improved government offer for the Core EB, work has been continuing to progress the agreement and make it operational. Together representatives have been drafting the new Core EB with government representatives and are close to finalising the document. What happens next is that a ballot of all staff must occur. We understand this will be done electronically with hard copies of a postal ballot distributed to staff who do not have work email addresses, like RCOs. We do not have a firm date of when this will occur just yet but hope it will be in the next couple of weeks.
