We’re going all the way for equal pay!
Join Kristine and win!The historic Employment Court decision about SFWU member Kristine Bartlett’s equal pay case has opened the door to the possibility of equal pay for women.
The Court agreed with us that finding an equal pay rate for caregivers in the aged care sector means comparing the work you do with a job in a male-dominated sector with similar skills, effort and responsibility to caregiving.
SFWU and NZNO plan to file equal pay cases for thousands of caregivers.
We are leading the way for equal pay! Once we’ve won equal pay for caregivers, we’ll look at other aged care workers. We’re aiming for equal pay for all women workers.
No matter what you do or where you work, we all have a part to play to make sure we go all the way for equal pay.
We need to stand with Kristine and work together to make sure we win this important case. And we need to get thousands more workers in aged care into our unions because we’re stronger together.
Equal pay for aged care workers.
But we’re not there yet... This is a huge victory. But it is just a first step. The battle for equal pay and a living wage in the aged care sector has not been won yet.
