Swinburne staff warned of job cuts as universities' COVID-19 woes grow "As a result of COVID-19, Monash has faced its largest annual reductions in revenue in the university’s history, and it is likely that next year will be worse," vice-chancellor Margaret Gardner said. Staff at Monash are being urged to sign up to a union-negotiated framework involving temporary pay cuts of up to 15 per cent to avoid widespread job losses. Swinburne vice-chancellor Professor Linda Kristjanson told staff the university had “initiated consultation on voluntary redundancies” but could not rule out forced redundancies.

Swinburne projects a deficit of $51 million this year, followed by further losses totalling $101 million in 2021 and 2022.
Government briefing to allay universities' fears over foreign veto laws adds to uncertainty Australian universities could get the green light to strike deals with international counterparts under the Morrison government’s new foreign veto laws, only to have the agreements ripped up years down the track because “foreign policy considerations are not static”.

University representatives raised fears at the briefing that the new laws could have a “chilling effect” on international research collaboration – given that Australia’s foreign affairs minister could initially allow an agreement to enter into force, only to veto at a later stage.
