We are still trying to find out why St Vincent’s Health has still not passed on the public sector pay increases or paid the sign-on bonus or backpay to our members.

We have contacted the CEO and the Director of HR for an explanation and are still waiting, waiting ….

We suggest members Email Nicole Feely (CEO) and Catherine King (HR) directly and ask them why, if all the other major health services have paid, that St Vincent’s is the recalcitrant.

We are now aware of a couple of other health services, with fewer of our members employed, who also need reminding that they entered into an agreement on 26 June 2008 to pay salary increases to our members. Again, we encourage members to demand HR, the CEO or payroll to ‘show them the money’.
