Private Sector Updates – Statewide
Calvary Health Care Tasmania
The ANMF attended the Enterprise Agreement (EA) meeting on Friday 3 February 2023. Unfortunately, there were no discussions, for while the ANMF had submitted the Log of Claims (LoC) on behalf of members, the employer was awaiting a LoC from another union so were not prepared to have a substantial discussion. The next EA meeting is scheduled for Wednesday 8 March 2023 from 1000hrs until 1200hrs, where Calvary have indicated that they will respond to the LoC. Reps will be attending this meeting. If any members have an interest in becoming a Workplace Representative and attending this next meeting, please contact Southern Organiser Jane Pond at Jane.Pond@anmftas.org.au
