Masonic Care Tasmania
The ANMF received four draft Agreements from Masonic Care Tasmania (i.e. Agreements for Nursing South, Nursing North, General Staff South and General Staff North).  The Agreements have been updated to reflect negotiated outcomes from bargaining that occurred late in 2019, as well as a harmonised redundancy clause (taking the best of the conditions from the 4 current agreements), and standard paid parental and partner leave as per the current nursing Agreements. The proposed wage offer is 1.5%, along with an 18 month timeframe. The ANMF are scheduling meetings with members to discuss this offer and seek direction on a proposed counter offer. Further details will be sent via email regarding meeting times and locations, these will either be held via videoconference or, pending restrictions, face to face on site.

The ANMF will now arrange for a follow up meeting with Respect management to discuss a final counter proposal. Further details following this meeting will be relayed to members via email.

Respect Mt St Vincents
The ANMF consulted members at Mt St Vincents regarding Respect’s proposal to transfer Mt St Vincents members onto the current Respect Agreement. The ANMF have written to Respect management advising them that the proposal is not supported by members, unless an agreement can be reached on the preservation of the current Mt St Vincents conditions as these are more beneficial. Further details will be sent to members via email following receipt of correspondence from Respect regarding this matter.

BUPA South Hobart
BUPA South Hobart have proposed a roll over Agreement which maintains the current conditions for a further 12 months, with a wage increase of 3% in July 2020 (already allocated) as well as a 3% increase in July 2021.  As part of this roll over Agreement, allowances will be increased by 3% or by CPI. A survey has been sent to members working at BUPA South Hobart to seek their view on the proposal. If you work at this site, please complete the online survey to ensure that your voice is heard. If you did not receive the survey and you have checked your junk email, please get in touch with us.

Corumbene
On 11 June 2020, a video conference was held with members working at Corumbene to discuss the latest offer from management regarding the nurses Agreement. Feedback from members is that the offer, in its present state, will not get a positive vote. Members feel that Corumbene has not listened to them, and that the minimal wage increase of 1.75% will make no real difference to their ability to cover their increased cost of living expenses.

South Eastern Community Care
The ANMF conducted a meeting with members at South Eastern Community Care on 9 June 2020. The meeting was to consult with members prior to the ballot process commencing.

Medea Park
Following a meeting with Medea Park management earlier this month, the ANMF will provide a counterproposal to the employer in response to the latest offer.

Toosey
Toosey have applied to the Fair Work Commission for approval of their Enterprise Agreement. After a hearing and several submissions, the Fair Work Commission has dismissed the application. The dismissal was essentially on technical grounds for non-compliance of the employer under the Fair Work Act 2019 (the Act) and the multiple ballots held. The ANMF are working with members to develop a new Log of Claims before recommencing the bargaining process with Toosey. Once the Log of Claims has been developed, we will meet with members to seek endorsement of the claims. Please keep an eye on emails with further information regarding.

Melaleuca
Despite members indicating that they would be prepared to accept a reduction of entitlements in order to retain the paid meal breaks, the ANMF, on behalf of members, refused to concede that these should be removed from the next round of bargaining. As such, the employer intends to refer the matter to the Fair Work Commission. Once we have more information relating to this matter, members will be notified via email.
