I think the question should be this:  Why should somebody not join the SDA? That list would be short.  


Being a member of the SDA is important because I'm not good at speaking up so I need assitance to help negotiate on my behalf.  


With the upcoming EBA negotiations it's great to have someone pushing our company for better conditions in my workplace.  


Great service, great knowledge of workplace policies and procedures, free Legal advice, great value for money. These are just some of the benefits, why wouldn’t you want to join?  


Update for Myer Members

Go Back
  • 6th July 2017

Myer employees received a wage increase on 1 July this year. This is a result of unions – including the SDA – winning a 3.3% increase from 1 July 2017 in the Fair Work Commission’s Annual Wage Review.

This increase was passed on by the Company to ensure your wages meet the minimum legal requirements.

However, the SDA does not believe the increase to Australian wages is sufficient and Myer members, like all Australian employees, deserve better.

At a time of record low wage growth, Australian workers need significant pay rises secured.

The SDA will continue to work hard to represent you and argue for fairer wages and conditions through negotiating for a new Myer Agreement.

We know the cost of living continues to go up and you rely on fair pay increases to get by and we are committed to making this happen.

If you would like to talk about your pay and conditions at Myer, please contact the SDA. We are more than happy to answer any questions or help you with any workplace issue.

Yours sincerely,

Peter O'Keeffe,

WA Branch Secretary
