We do it differently - again

Further to the recognition by Queensland's Industrial Commission in 2002, the PSAQ has again been recognised for its ongoing cooperative, consultative approach to workplace relations.

This time it was from the Deputy Prime Minister, The Hon Julia Gillard MP, in a letter to the PSAQ dated 22/10/2009.

Fur us, the key words in that letter were ". . . to be commended for working together to develop a consent award.  Your contribution has helped the (industrial Relations) Commission to realise its aim . . .".

The "working together" referred to in that letter was led by the PSAQ, nationally, and has now borne fruit in the first federal real estate industry award.
