Late last year we wrote to members regarding some key impact dates with regard to transition of employment within Telstra’s planned new legal structure.
Members would have received information from Telstra regarding a delay in this transition.
Members will no longer be asked to review and accept a new contract from 2 February as previously planned, due to a delay in legislation requirements that have carried over to the new parliamentary sitting year.
We will keep members up to date as a new timeline becomes available.
In the meantime, Telstra have setup an employment transition website which can be accessed by clicking here. Members are encouraged to explore this website and view a sample employment contract by clicking here.
Importantly, members should take comfort in the security that Clause 47 of the current EBA provides.
Members fought incredibly hard to secure these provisions during the last round of bargaining and ensures you transition across to the new subsidiary with no changes to your employment arrangements such as your pay, superannuation, benefits and other entitlements, including recognition of service.
In the meantime, if you require any further information, please contact your State Branch Officials.
