From the time the Union was first inaugurated in July, 1981, we have always put members at the centre of everything we do. We take pride in our Union, our members and the vital roles our members play in delivering world-class healthcare to Victorians.
Our Union is able to achieve what we do because of our members and our seven values which are at our core:
- The Union is the members
- Members are the centre of everything we do
- We value the individual professions that make up our craft Union
- We correct the imbalance of power
- We empower our members (through education and sharing information)
- In our Union – we are equal
- The number of our members is unlimited
These core values underpin our work every day and provide guidance on the decisions we make.
We’re always happy for members to hold us to account for the decisions we make, and whether they are true to our values. It ensures that we always remain focused on the very core values that led to the formation of our union.
