Telstra design roles: CWU pursues classification issue
The CWU is continuing to pursue the issue of the correct Workstream alignment of the Designer roles created in the recent reorganisation in the wideband area within Enterprise Services.
Along with an unexpectedly large number of redundancies, the reorganisation involved what was effectively a widebanding of the designer role along the lines of the Job Family model.
Functions that were previously spread over a number of classifications (e.g. internal and external design) were combined into one role at the CFW6 level. The CWU considers that the role should be a CFW7.
The union has arranged to seek legal advice as to how to pursue this question most effectively and is consulting with counsel on the matter. Members will be informed of progress.
