Hi there, does anyone have any advice as to how to create traction on this?

I'm a Victorian DiT and the AMA aren't getting any additional parental leave in the current EBA negotiations. It is remaining at 14 weeks for primary carer, 2 weeks for secondary carer.

There is some increased flexibility (?you don't have to take it contemporaneously with the birth) but that's it.

I have tried contacting the union to express disappointment over not fighting for any increase at all, but haven't heard back. We attended the bargaining meetings last year and remember this was a top priority for members.

Any advice? We still have time
