Enterprise agreements

UNSW has two enterprise agreements (EA's), an Academic Staff Enterprise Agreement and a Professional Staff Enterprise Agreement. These agreements set the terms and conditions of employment for most staff at UNSW. The current agreements, which expired in December 2021, continue to apply until new agreements are voted for by staff.
