In this podcast, HACSU State Secretary Robbie Moore talks us through last week’s action by pathology workers at the LGH and child safety and youth justice workers in the south, as well as upcoming action this week - including medical imaging workers who are stepping up their fight for equal pay with their mainland counterparts.

Congratulations to Judy Richmond, who this month marks 30 years as President of HACSU Tasmania.

In this podcast, Judy recalls one of her most memorable moments from her 50+ years in nursing and the time she and other hospital staff organised a blockage against then Tasmanian Premier Ray Groom.

Meet Judy Seal – she became a HACSU member in the late 80s and recently retired after an incredible career as a dietitian for almost 40 years.

In this podcast, we hear about the workplace challenges Judy was confronted with when she first moved to Tasmania, what led to her joining HACSU, and one of the significant career achievements she is most proud of.

Thank you for sharing your story with us Judy, and congratulations on your retirement.
