Another union scare

Another day another union scare campaign from the real Opposition, the union movement.

Despite being told numerous times that no decision has been made, HACSU is only interested in playing politics.

It’s time the union were held to account for their misinformation.

The facts in relation to improving hospital support services at the Tasmanian Health Service in the north west are:

No decision has been made;
The review will look at ways to assist with delivering an efficient and effective service, which is what health managers should be doing;
There is no predetermined plan or decision against which to protest;
Unions and staff will be informed when the review is complete and what recommendations are being considered, as repeatedly advised; and
No changes will be made without consultation with staff and unions, as repeatedly advised.

HACSU has been fully informed that the review is underway. It complements the move to a Statewide health system.

The irony is that the One Health System reforms are publicly supported by HACSU despite this continuing tactic of oppositional scaremongering.
