Six hundred psychologists employed by District Health Boards, and members of the union APEX, will begin voting next week on a new offer from their employers to settle their collective agreement negotiations.
Nearly 1200 DHB employed Medical Imaging Technologists (MITs) have voted to embark on their biggest set of strike action in a decade, as their DHB employers are yet to produce an improved offer despite both sides having met for mediated bargaining last month.
Nearly 1200 DHB employed Medical Imaging Technologists (MITs) are currently on their third strike which involves a complete withdrawal of labour.
On Friday 11 October, Medical Laboratory Workers at nine District Health Boards (DHBs) and the New Zealand Blood Service will undergo a full withdrawal of labour after their employers failed to recognise their worth with an equitable salary offer.
Medical Imaging Technologists (MITs, otherwise known as radiographers) across New Zealand, went on strike at District Health Boards on Monday 30 September and Wednesday 2 October.
APEX members working in medical laboratories will strike for 24 hours later this week, from 8.00am on Friday 11th October until 8.00am on Saturday 12th October.
Six hundred psychologists employed by District Health Boards have issued notice for a third month of nationwide strike action to begin in October.
