Views sought on WRA


CDF ACM Angus Houston has opened consultation on the next Workplace Remuneration Arrangement (WRA).

“I want to engage our members early on the replacement arrangement and I invite ADF members to have their say and provide their views,” he said. “The WRA deals with ADF pay and related allowances. Other conditions of service such as deployment allowances, domestic allowances, leave and housing sit outside the WRA.”

The WRA will deliver across-the-board ADF pay increases, in return for general improvements in productivity and efficiency.

At this stage, the WRA project team needs wide-ranging input from members on such issues as the amount and timing of pay rises and the length of the WRA, salary-related allowances, and reserve pay and conditions.
