TasIVF Protected Action Ballot

Members at TasIVF are escalating their campaign for an improved bargaining offer and next week will start voting in a Protected Action Ballot (PAB).

For TasIVF to sustain quality service for patients, looking after its nurses should be a prerequisite.

The PAB will give members the option to take protected industrial action if required, which could take the form of stoppages of work as well as distributing information about our campaign to members of the public.
