A hospital that failed to
pay more than 1500 junior
doctors for overtime is
appealing the historic
class action, in a fresh
blow for workers.

Both @amavictoria
and ASMOF Victoria
continue to urge the
Department of Health
and Health Minister
@MaryAnneThomas
to instruct @
PeninsulaHealth to
settle this & other
class actions by doctors
in training against Victorian
health services. #wagetheft

Don’t let hospitals get
away with wage theft!
It’s a hospital, there is
always an emergency.
It doesn’t mean hospitals
should be able to set up a
system so you’re not paid
overtime. Follow it up with
AMA if you’re expected to
work for free. No hospital
CEO would work for free.

Great news!
@MaryAnneThomas has
announced new grants of
up to $40,000 to encourage
future doctors to train as
GPs. As @DrAnitaMunoz told
@rileyrobyn08 this will help
secure the future of the
GP workforce. It's a positive
step forward. #GPWorkforce

The @amavictoria team
have also appreciated
the opportunity to help
shape this important
initiative. Looking forward
to continuing to work
together in 2024 on
initiatives that support
the entire Victorian GP
workforce, and achieve
better outcomes for
all Victorians.

Great initiative. There will
be an unprecedented need
for strong leadership within
medicine, at all levels, in the
years to come.

"So tired and still so much
to do!" There is a common
theme in the conversations
we’re having with doctors
and medical leaders:
I’m just exhausted; and
there’s still so much to do.
The tiredness is evident.
And the items still on the
to-do list are real too.
So, how do we manage
it all?
