Victorian hospital workers strike for better pay

Allied health professionals including physiotherapists, pathologists and radiologists across Victoria have begun a 24-hour strike at public hospitals, demanding better pay, improved working conditions and career pathway structures after a year of failed negotiations with the government. The industrial action precedes a historic strike by Victorian doctors scheduled for Thursday, marking the first time in 20 years doctors will walk off the job, with doctors calling for a 30% pay rise and shift caps of 12.5 hours.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
