Massive wage theft win today thanks to staunch @NTEUnion members at @MonashUni 👇👇👇💜 https://t.co/aeCPFwMEZJ

A $450,000 “contrition” payment Monash University has agreed to pay the academics’ union is a game-changer that will scale up its legal actions across the sector.

Big win today. Fed Court outcome says all @MonashUni casuals to be back paid their underpaid wages going back to 2016. AND a $450k contrition payment to @NTEUnion. Universities, be on notice- breach our Agreements at own risk. @NTEUVictoria

Melbourne Uni agrees to pay $72m to staff it 'underpaid' plus a contrition payment to the Federal Government in an 'Enforceable Undertaking' with Fair Work Ombudsman - who agree to drop their legal action. Extraordinary... https://t.co/E9vojKhNe0

The prestigious university has agreed to pay millions in interest and superannuation on top of the wage repayments to 25,000 current and former staff. One worker was underpaid by $150,000.

Both the current and the previous @UniMelb Chancellors, Jane Hansen and Allan Myers, were appointed after making $40m and $10m donations.😶 The Feds' much-touted governance council had better get the big stick out of the cupboard. @NTEUVictoria

Amid a governance crisis in Australian universities, the academics union says big donors should not be named chancellors.

Solidarity to @NTEUnion members at Victoria University, who are facing the latest militant escalation by employers. Our members are taking protected industrial action for a fairer enterprise agreement and have effectively been stood down by management. Shame! #betterunis
Staff stood down at Victoria University! Management responds to industrial action as staff continue push for new enterprise agreement after years without a deal. Solidarity with staff at Vic Uni! https://t.co/kxNjchOBLJ

Of all the unis to try to take on its @NTEUnion members you would have thought Vic Uni would have learnt from the last couple of times it got it’s arse kicked with failed attempts to introduce non-union EBAs. Vic Uni workers will always trust their union over bosses. Solidarity✊

I'd really love to know what workers can do to get a 70% pay rise in a year, like this guy did. Plenty of #HigherEducation staff who'd like to know that trick!
$1.8m V-C pay mystery deepens at UC 🧐 When will @UniCanberra come clean on exactly what happened and why? https://t.co/fVL9EbXwQu
