a review into classification levels in many areas in Families SA. The
commitment was given by the department that any re-classifications of
positions would be backdated to December 2005.
PSA has been
actively involved on behalf of members employed in Anti Poverty and
Customer Services and a number of meetings were held with
departmental representatives to achieve a positive outcome for Senior
Financial Counselors and Community Support Workers.
The
Supervisor, Anti Poverty Services has been classified at the OPS5
level and the Community Support Worker (Financial Counsellings) has
been classified at the OPS 3 level.

is fair and equitable. All staff affected with be advised
individually once the process is completed. Any individual concerns
will be investigated once all staff have been assessed.
