A union representative involved in protracted enterprise bargaining negotiations with University of Newcastle says it is "interesting to note" vice-chancellor Alex Zelinsky's remuneration increased 7 per cent to more than $930,000 last year.
Professor Zelinsky's new pay band of $930,000 to $939,999, up from $860,000 to $869,999 in 2021, is recorded in the university's 2022 annual report, which was tabled in NSW Parliament on the same day the university's enterprise bargaining dispute with staff landed in the Fair Work Commission.
