Last week Job Reps met to hear an update on bargaining; to discuss our next steps and what sort of action will be taken to advance negotiations.
The meeting heard that negotiations are stalling and that the prospect of any level of agreement is becoming remote. We continue to press hard for a settlement and strongly argue that we should not be forced into having to take industrial action.
We always remind the State Government that it gave a commitment to all public sector unions that it would make enterprise bargaining negotiations fair and reasonable – we are not seeing this.
It is time to get angry. And you can send Premier Daniel Andrews a special Christmas message to let him know you want Decent Jobs and Healthy Careers. Find out what else you can do to support our campaign – click here

“Medical scientists, psychologists and pharmacists are crucial to Victoria having a world-class healthcare system. Daniel Andrews it’s time to give medical scientists, psychologists and pharmacists Decent Jobs and Healthy Careers to continue delivering world-class healthcare in Victoria.”
“The State Government gave a commitment to all public sector unions that it would make enterprise bargaining negotiations fair and reasonable. But we’re not seeing this. What we’re seeing is delaying tactics.
Daniel Andrews it’s time you stick to your promise – medical scientists, psychologists and pharmacists deserve Decent Jobs and Healthy Careers.”
“All I want for Christmas is a new agreement not more ongoing uncertainty about when our new agreement is done. After months of negotiations there are no excuses for the failure to make an offer. Daniel Andrews it’s time to get the agreement done!”
“The Victorian Government can put people first this Christmas by ensuring medical scientists, psychologists and pharmacists get the gift of a new agreement. But after months of negotiations there are still no offers.
Daniel Andrews it’s time to put people first by getting the agreement done!”
