Fighting for our future

What we’re fighting for

Sydney and NSW Trains workers are currently negotiating a new enterprise agreement.

Workers deserve fair wages and conditions and commuters deserve safe, affordable and accessible public transport. We need an enterprise agreement that delivers on all of those things.

Sydney Trains and NSW Trains workers are the backbone of our public rail network. It’s critical for them, their families, commuters and the state as a whole that they’re provided with a fair enterprise agreement that acknowledges the essential work they do to move our commuters safely around our state.
