Wage dispute in Tasmania

Southern Cross employees threaten industrial action.

The ABC reported that more than 300 Southern Cross Care (Tasmania) aged care workers have planned to take industrial action following a rejected enterprise bargaining offer.

According to the Health and Community Services Union, after months of negotiations Southern Cross has lifted its wage increase offer from 2.85 per cent to 3 per cent.

The union described the offer as an insult, saying it will organise a ballot among members to vote on industrial action.
