A union organiser says stopping subsequent month’s strikes of crucial well being employees is within the Authorities’s arms.
Will Matthews says mediation between the Public Service Affiliation and district well being boards did not resolve issues about wages, pay disparities, protected workloads and employees retention.
The ten,000 public well being, scientific and technical professionals voted by 93 per cent to strike.
He says DHBs have been caught out by the Authorities’s wage restraint coverage.
“They don’t need these crucial employees to be out for a day. The employees don’t both. There’s a simple decision right here and all it requires is for the Authorities to only shift a bit,” Mr Matthews says.
The strikes are set for March 4 and 18.
