The Department of Communities and Justice (DCJ) has acknowledged that Child Protection staff forced to work from home when other accommodation is not available are entitled to the Room at Home allowance.
DCJ has advised the Public Service Association (PSA) that letters will be sent to staff from the Ballina, Lismore and Goonellabah offices who have been identified as eligible.
“If you believe you are entitled to the allowance but have not received a letter, please let us know,” said PSA Industrial Manager Julie-Ann Bond.

We pay respect to Ancestors and Elders, past, present and future. We recognise the unique cultural and spiritual relationship and celebrate the contributions of first nations peoples to Australia.
