Why TasIVF Nurses are taking INDUSTRIAL ACTION

#SupportFairPayForTasIVFNurses

Why we love our job

“I support women, couples and families on their fertility journeys. Educating our clients on how their cycle will run, support and counselling them through the process and the outcome. All the highs and lows, we are there with them every step of the way”

“I work with an excellent team and feel I’m leaving a positive effect on my patients.”

Why we are willing to take industrial action

“Nurses are currently taking on other work to supplement their income, which pays better”

“We as a group, have so much valuable expertise, life experience, skills, knowledge, and empathy to provide an amazing service to our patient, and just want this recognised.”

“For far too long, nurses have been overlooked and dismissed when it comes to wage increases and fair working conditions in all specialties and places.

“We may be a small business compared to our “sister” day hospitals on the mainland, but we are no less deserving of recognition of our hard work and dedication to patient care. Enough is enough. Pay us what we are worth, not what you think we deserve!”

What difference a real pay rise would make

“It will help to afford the cost of living for many families. It will also give staff room to breathe without worry of how they can make ends meet. Also staff will feel they mean something to the company.”

“It would help me to feel that my work is worthwhile. That I’m worthwhile.”
