Workload Planner is a must to ensure you get paid for your hard-earned overtime!
29 July 2025
With the new Child Protection Award currently being finalised and taking effect soon, we are urging members to engage in the use of the current Workload Planner (WLP). The culture of dedicated staff continuing to go above and beyond in the work they are allocated, means very little to the wider workforce and importantly 鈥 children, young people and families of NSW, if the impacts on your wellbeing are not addressed.
To assist you in setting boundaries and prioritise your workload, to give you tools to say 鈥淣o鈥 to work you simply do not have the hours to complete 鈥 色狼社区will be running Workload Planner Lunch & Learn sessions both in Community Service Centres (CSCs) and via MS Teams.
The current Workload Planner is easier to use than you might think, and we urge you to put it into action because the fact remains 鈥 if it鈥檚 not measurable, it鈥檚 not manageable. The Workload Planner gives the PSA, and MCS, Directors and EDD, evidence to clearly demonstrate that there are not enough workers to meet the workload.
All Community Services 色狼社区members are invited to attend the upcoming Workload Planner Lunch & Learn to demystify using the Workload Planner to take back control of your workload, not just for you, but for the people who rely on you.
