NSW Paramedics are taking state-wide industrial action this week to push for a real pay rise and improvement to their working conditions, arguing that the Minns Government has failed to deliver on critical election commitments.
They will place a ban on staff movements by refusing to move from their home communities.
The Australian Paramedics Association NSW (APA) has taken action to push for a fair pay rise after "years of real wage decline".
APA (NSW) President Chris Kastelan said, "this action is an unfortunate but necessary response to a lack of commitment from the NSW Government to address woefully low paramedic wages.
"Taking industrial action isn't done lightly, but we need real action from the Govt to deliver a real wage increase."
