"But on the other hand, it has left significant workload problems for the people remaining," he said. "And it's not just about workload, but it's also about safety and the student experience."
But La Trobe maintains the workload of remaining staff will be unaffected.
"We are focused on ensuring the closure of those roles does not negatively impact on the workload of our remaining staff; a key criteria in approving a voluntary redundancy was to demonstrate that workload would not be increased," a spokeswoman said.
