Is there any Victorian nurses out there working in the public sector? I am having trouble accessing a current award. How many weeks paid maternity leave are we entitled to? I have a feeling it got increased to 9 weeks last year but my employer tells me it's 8 weeks paid leave.
oct 2008 it increased to 10 weeks paid mat leave.
(oct 2007 it went to 9 weeks)
call ANF if any issues
Wow, 10 weeks is even better, thanks!
10 weeks sounds awesome!
i am a private sector nurse in SA, and we only get 8 weeks...
Should I mention NSW nurses in the public sector get 14 weeks ;)
i so wish i still lived in NSW!
When I moved back to SA I went up a year level, but lost $6 an hour in pay :(
Yes, 10 weeks in Victoria as of last October. In US they get much longer apparently. I wish the awards were standardised throughout Australia and that we could all have the longer leave.
