WACOSS STAFF: WHY WE GOT VACCINATED

Great turnout today for the launch of the WA Digital Inclusion Project - a collaboration of 25 partners that aims to build the digital capability of front-line community service workers and vulnerable people, together with their communities @lotterywest @NBN_Australia #wapol https://t.co/LYspVDpRoC

Alongside wage increases we would now like to see adequate indexation offered on State Government contracts to frontline community service orgs, so that critical services are not put at risk from funding failing to match the increased cost of providing these services. #WApol

Although it does fall short of our ask of 7.6%, which is the same rate at which CPI has increase for WA households, the increase is very welcome and an encouraging step in the right direction in responding to rapidly rising living costs in WA. #costofliving
