Kindy staff face wage freeze, cuts to conditions

15 July, 2022

A Brisbane-based community kindergarten employer wants to freeze wages, cut redundancy provisions and exclude new admin staff from the centre’s new agreement altogether.

It comes after our union warned members in the sector to be aware of underhanded attacks to working conditions and pay earlier this year.

IEU-QNT Organiser Nicole Lakidis said this was the latest in a series of kindergarten employers trying to quietly roll back key working conditions and deliver a pay cut to hard-working employees.
