NSGEU release:
Thousands of health care administrative professionals are invited to join lunch-hour pickets being held at hospitals province-wide on Monday, September 25th between 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.
These workers are calling attention to the fact that their contract will be three years expired this October, they are among the lowest-paid health care workers in Atlantic Canada, and their employers and government have offered them a wage package that equates to a pay cut.
Earn Up to $100 Per Visit. Save Lives.
