We’ve received the following invitation from Professionals Australia to all interpreters and Deaf Interpreters:

Dear Interpreter,

Working as an interpreter usually means a patchwork of contracts, pay rates, entitlements, policies and procedures to navigate.

Join us for an online open meeting for any and all Auslan and Deaf interpreters to talk about what is and isn’t working for you in your existing arrangements and contracts, and how we can work together to improve conditions for all of us.

WHEN: Tuesday, 23 May, 6:00pm AEST

WHERE: Online, via Zoom

This meeting will be Auslan interpreted.

All members and non-members working as interpreters are welcome to join.

Translators and Interpreters Australia is the union for professional interpreters. We are the union for you.

We stand for fair, safe, and inclusive workplaces. We support and empower our members to thrive in all stages of their careers and believe that communities, business, industry, and the economy thrive best when professional employees are recognised, respected, and rewarded for their contribution.

You have received this email because you are a TIA member, have engaged with TIA in the past or are listed on the NAATI public database.

Please contact us at tia@professionalsaustralia.org.au if you have any questions about the above meeting, your employment or membership with TIA.

Sincerely,

Translators and Interpreters Australia
