Hobart Clinic
The ANMF attended an enterprise agreement meeting at Hobart Clinic on 26 July 2019. Here, Hobart Clinic made a wage offer of 5% in addition to an earlier commitment to 2% from 1 July 2019. Whilst this offer appears generous, the offer is from the date of approval, which ANMF estimate this may be early next year. There is much for members to consider in this offer, and ANMF visited members at their workplace on Tuesday 3 September for a discussion. During this meeting, the ANMF presented modelling data to members. This data provides an accurate representation on the real value of the offer. If you would like to request a copy of this data, please contact the ANMF Member Support Team via email membersupport@anmftas.org.au.
