Fresh Hope 3% wage offer - Have your say
Fresh Hope are proposing to pause enterprise agreement negotiations until September this year.
The HSU has said that we are concerned Fresh Hope employees have gone too long without a pay increase and that our key issues – such as improvements to uniforms and better pay for employees undertaking medication duties – have not been properly addressed.
In response to the HSU’s concerns, Fresh Hope have proposed the following:
3% Pay increase
Fresh Hope propose a 3% wage increase to all employees, back paid to the first full pay period on or after 1 November 2021.
Uniform improvements
Fresh Hope agrees to consult with staff about new uniforms over the next 3 months, in line with its current re-branding project. Consultation around uniform design preferences will take place over May – June and will include HSU delegates.
Medication training
Fresh Hope agrees to deliver medication training to ensure that staff are appropriately trained. Fresh Hope have also planned further training to ensure that there is a clear understanding around the procedures and accountabilities in respect to this function over the coming months. The HSU will continue to press for all employees who undertake medication duties to be properly remunerated for this vital responsibility.
Negotiations recommence Sept 2022
Fresh Hope agrees to recommence formal bargaining with the HSU in September this year, to complete negotiation for a new enterprise agreement.
