Dates of 17 and 18 March 2011 have now been set for the Collective Agreement negotiations between NUPE and SFWU and Richmond NZ. The expired agreement with the former Richmond Fellowship will be the basis for negotiations. The Service Workers (SFWU) cover the North Island members and NUPE Christchurch and Nelson and we are again seeking a Multi Union Collective Agreement.
The process of putting claims together is now underway.
