The Victorian Ambulance Union Incorporated (VAU) is seeking expressions of interest from members for inclusion in our log of claims for bargaining for a new Ambulance Victoria (AV) Management and Administrative Agreement 2021 (AVMA) to replace the current AVMA 2021.

The current AVMA will expire on 24 October 2025 however negotiations begin six months prior to the AVMA expiry.

Please note, AVMA negotiations are separate from the current Ambulance Victoria Enterprise Agreement which covers operational members and is currently being voted on.

In AVMA bargaining, the VAU negotiate alongside Professionals Australia (AMPA) who represent most management and corporate positions as well as the United Workers Union (UWU).

To avoid lengthy and unnecessary delays it is important that an agreed log of claims is endorsed and served on AV and Government well before bargaining begins.

All members covered by the AVMA are invited to make suggestions for improvements to the wages and working conditions in the Agreement. Most of the improvements achieved over many years of enterprise bargaining have begun with suggestions from members.

Please send your suggestions through to [email protected].

In Solidarity.
