Workplace change - UOW Operations
Preliminary consultation
The University of Wollongong (UOW) has commenced a preliminary phase of consultation with staff and unions ahead of potential workplace change, in line with the requirements of the University’s enterprise agreements.
The next stage of transformation is focused on the University’s operations and is separate to the previous Teaching and Learning Change Plan which was released on 14 January 2025 and achieved a $21 million reduction in recurrent expenditure.
UOW is committed to a genuine consultation process, which will be conducted in line with the requirements of the University’s enterprise agreements.
All UOW staff were informed today (Monday 3 February) and have been invited to provide information and suggestions that they consider relevant for the development of any formal draft change proposal.
The preliminary phase of feedback will be followed by two further rounds of consultation where staff will be given an opportunity to engage directly on any Draft Change Proposal before final outcomes are released in June.
