The PSA CPSU NSW office for members in the South West has moved from Charles Sturt University to Junee. 

The office, at 8 Belmore Street, will support all members in the South West, including those from the Junee Correctional Centre joining the union.

After many years of campaigning by the PSA for an end to the prison-for-profit system, earlier this year the State Government announced that Junee Correctional Centre will be in public hands from March 2025.

The prison, originally built as a private gaol, will now have better staff-to-inmate ratios, better paid officers and, staff will have improved opportunities for career development with Corrective Services NSW (CSNSW).

Unionised officers and other staff working at the Junee facility will move from the United Workers Union to the PSA, and both unions agree the move will be a positive one for members.

“Our union has supported members in regional NSW since it was founded in 1899,” said PSA CPSU NSW Assistant General Secretary Troy Wright, who attended the opening of the Junee office. “And with seven locations across the state Junee joins a network of assistance that ensures public servants can perform their duties in a safe workplace, with hard-fought-for conditions no matter where in the state of NSW they are.”
