On Monday 2 June, the VHIA, on behalf of the Community Health employers, put a formal offer to the VHPA. As members will be aware we are obliged to give genuine consideration to all such offers.
We have consequently organised a mass meeting for all VHPA members working in the stand-alone Community sector (see the below list of stand-alone Centres).
This meeting provides us with an opportunity to talk through the offer but more broadly provides us with an opportunity to explore the various issues facing the sector and those working within it. It further gives members space to share their views on the current negotiations.
Meanwhile the Union continues to work on key elements of the Community Health Campaign in earnest. We are committed to achieving fair and reasonable outcomes for Health Professionals working in the sector and in ensuring the sector works in the interests of all Victorians.
It is clearly very important that ALL Members at stand-alone Centres attend the meeting to discuss the offer and the next stages in the campaign. If you’re not sure if your in a stand alone centre or not, please see the list below.
When? Thursday 12 June @ 6pm
Where? New Council Chambers, Trades Hall, 54 Victoria St, Carlton (Cnr Lygon St)
If you have any queries, please contact the VHPA at chc@vahpa.asn.au. Members at regional Community Health Centres are encouraged to contact us as soon as possible to discuss any travel or accommodation needs.
