We encourage you to get involved in your campaign to improve your wages and conditions. Talk to your Job Reps and colleagues and make sure your ward or unit is represented at this meeting.

Transport – book a place on the bus
ANMF is organising buses to and from the meeting from regional and metropolitan healthcare services. View the bus timetable [PDF]. Book your place on the bus when you register online.
We also recommend that Job Reps pin this bus list [PDF] on noticeboards so members can put their names down in addition to their online registration. This will help you and your colleagues know who is coming and you can organise to catch the bus together.
We recommend you bring a drink bottle and some snacks for the journey.

Leave entitlements
