Calvary Health Care Tasmania (CHCT): St Luke’s and St Vincent’s Hospitals

The ANMF thank our dedicated members who continue to complete and submit workload forms. These will shape the backbone of our dispute with CHCT demonstrating that the workplace is unsafe for our members, and patients, alike. We ask every staff member who believes they are working with an unsafe patient load, unsafe skill mix, short staffed, and missed meal breaks, to submit a workload form so these can be presented to the Fair Work Commission (FWC).
