TAFE NSW workers are rallying in Sydney over the loss of 678 frontline jobs and the sale of the Scone campus, with the union warning south-west Sydney’s youth unemployment is set to get worse as vital student services get cut.
More than 302 jobs are set to go from Sydney campuses, TAFE NSW’s own documents have revealed. That includes 116 jobs from Sydney Metro, 50 from North Sydney, 42 from Western Sydney, and 92 from South Western Sydney campuses.
“TAFE NSW is the best pathway to get people out of the house and ready for work, especially for young people,” said Stewart Little, general secretary of the CPSU NSW.
