Representing public sector workers across Australia

The CPSU SPSF Group brings together state-based public sector unions including PSA CPSU NSW, CPSU Victoria, CPSU Tasmania, PSA South Australia, CPSU/CSA Western Australia, and the West Australian Prison Officers’ Union (WAPOU).

Our members deliver essential services in every state – from justice and corrections to child protection, emergency response, land management, and education.


Our Vision

A strong, coordinated public sector workforce that’s empowered to deliver essential services in every corner of the country.
We’re working toward:

  • Fair rights and protections for all public sector workers
  • National workforce planning and investment in critical professions
  • Federal funding that adds to – not replaces – state investment
  • Collaboration between state, territory and federal governments
  • A fair tax system where corporations pay their share

Our Mission

To strengthen Australia’s public services by fighting for fair funding, decent conditions, and secure jobs for the people who deliver them.
‍
We believe public money should build public systems – not private profits.

Our leadership

Our public services hold communities together – in crisis, in care, and in daily life.

They deserve respect, fair pay, and investment that reflects their value to our nation.
