Kunkler, who as part of Melbourne University NTEU Causals Network
was part of the campaign which clawed back $45 million of stolen
wages from the University and set the agenda for the entire higher
education sectors push to decasualizes the workforce. Their
campaign has been immortalised through the Commons
Library's launch of the Organising! A Remedy for Despair case
study and the We are The University oral history. These two
resources document how casual workers at Australia's richest
university launched a series of campaigns in 2019 and 2020 which
culminated in the back payment of a staggering $45 million in
stolen wages. Along the way they recruited hundreds of new members,
built a network of delegates, and steadily forced management to
concede to a range of demands. Both the oral history and the
summarised case study provide insights and lessons for those
challenging exploitation and building union power in their own
workplaces.
