About
The purpose of this Circular is to advise you that the Public Service Association has made application for an Award to replace the Crown Employees (Public Sector Salaries 1997) Award. You will be aware that the current Award expires on 31 December 1999. The Premier's Department, Public Sector Management Office will manage the application with your assistance.
The Award application seeks a 30% increase over a period of 36 months, in three instalments for members only.

significant improvements in public sector performance, efficiency and productivity across the public sector since the commencement of the 1997 Award;
economic considerations, including the changing value of money over time as reflected in the Consumer Price Index;
the impact of the Goods and Services Tax; and
significant community movements in salaries of employees in industries in NSW and in particular, in the NSW public sector.
Your views are important in the consideration of the application, in particular on issues of significance for your organisation and details should be provided to this office as soon as possible.
