As a casually employed nurse feel I am already discriminated, by the fact that in leu of holiday and sick pay I am paid a 20% loading, that goes no way near covering sick or holiday pay. I now see that on bank holidays I am going to be further discriminated against and insulted by only being paid 1.7 multiple of my hour rate.

ANF has been advocating for the loading to increase

How is the case for the higher level of NUM’s going?
This was supposed to be finalised in December 2011.

Unfortunately all issues relating to grading under the Heads of Agreement 2011 have stalled. ANF have pursued this issue with the DHHS but have had difficulty getting them to address a number of issues under dispute from the Heads of Agreement. This includes a number of issues such as public holidays, some allowances and in particular the criteria for grading of Grade 3 and 4 and the criteria for determining the NUMs position. Information provided by Neroli Ellis today – Wednesday 8 February – is that there has been significant feedback regarding grades 7-9 and we are expecting further detail relating to this matter tomorrow. Once this is received and ANF are in a position to provide information that will give a reasonable expectation to NUMs of the future grading options this information will be disseminated to those affected. ANF would assure all NUMs that we will continue to pursue this matter on their behalf.
