NSW Treasury: Consultative Arrangements Policy - Public Service Association

NSW Treasury: Consultative Arrangements Policy

The PSA has been meeting with management on a quarterly basis to seek consultation, raise any member concerns and seek updates to issues as previously raised by your union.

The Premier’s Department has recently issued a new Consultative Arrangements Policy, which can be viewed HERE,  and the PSA is seeking member feedback.

Issues subject to consultation examples are listed at 4.3.1 and include:

  • restructures, adjustments to business and service delivery priorities;
  • agency and sector-wide workplace reforms;
  • bargaining, including mutual gains bargaining;
  • establishing a commercial focus to the organisation;
  • changing work practices, including introducing and/or updating flexible work practices;
  • policy development and implementation;
  • introducing and/or changing classification structures;
  • best practice systems;
  • benchmarking;
  • performance and quality issues;
  • training and development;
  • improved career paths;
  • introducing team-based approaches;
  • workforce retention, attraction, and cross-sector mobility;
  • workplace health and safety;
  • equal employment opportunity;
  • workforce development;
  • systemic or repeated industrial issues;
  • staffing levels and shortages;
  • performance and conduct standards; and
  • enhanced use of existing technology and introduction of new technology.

The above is not an exhaustive list; however, this is a starting point for issues that may be considered for discussion through the consultative arrangements.
