00:00 What do we want?
00:01 Job security!
00:02 When do we want it?
00:03 Now!
00:04 What do we want?
00:05 Job security!
00:06 When do we want it?
00:07 Now!
00:08 My name is Lina, I'm currently on five different contracts at the ANU.
00:14 Shame!
00:15 Five different contracts and no job security.
00:18 Shame!
00:19 I want to tell all the students in this group that most of your teachers are casual teachers.
00:26 Shame!
00:27 My name is Mijan Pintos Lopez and I'm the NTEU ANU branch president.
00:31 This is the first time ANU staff have been on strike in 24 years, which is significant
00:35 and should be recognised and appreciated by senior management.
00:39 We're only 75 years old, so one third of ANU's history there hasn't been industrial action,
00:44 except for today.
00:45 We're fed up and we're ready for better conditions.
00:47 When I say union, you say power!
00:50 Union!
00:51 Power!
00:52 Union!
00:53 Power!
00:54 I'm hoping to see the commitment from the ANU to reduce its reliance on casual staff.
00:58 I'm hoping to see the creation of a significant amount of new jobs that are open for casual
01:02 staff to apply for, to increase their access to job security.
01:06 I'm hoping to see better superannuation contributions for casual staff, because we know it's important.
01:12 I'm hoping to see gender affirmation leave.
01:16 I'm hoping to see some form of sick leave entitlement.
01:20 It's insane that they don't have it at the moment.

01:28 Eddie Bryan!
01:29 Eddie Bryan!
01:30 Eddie Bryan!
01:31 Eddie Bryan!
01:32 Eddie Bryan!
01:33 Eddie Bryan!
01:34 Eddie Bryan!
01:35 So, I think they're frustrated, but I think that there's a good sense that after the strike
01:37 today, it'll be the final push that the ANU senior management needs for us to be signed
01:42 away on an agreement fairly soon.
