When pursuing or enforcing members rights and interests, the union often has to launch proceedings in courts and tribunals.

Legal costs involved in running these cases can mount to hundreds of thousands of dollars annually.

It would be impossible for most individuals to afford this cost but you can with the combined strength and resources of the CPSU membership to stand up and demand what is rightfully yours.

The union draws on its extensive experience and when needed engages the best industrial lawyers in the country.

As an example, the cost of running a simple unfair dismissal case could be around $2000. If you are a member of the union our industrial staff provide this service.

Remember, CPSU only acts for its current membership.
