QT-Queensland Times
QUEENSLAND Ambulance officers say they will continue to fight for better pay and conditions after winning a 20 per cent wage increase on Monday.
The Queensland Industrial Relations Commission (QIRC) ruled officers should get a cumulative wage increase of about 20 per cent, backdated to November 2008.
The order also includes additional payments based on length of service, qualifications and experience, according to the Liquor, Hospitality and Miscellaneous Union (LHMU).
“The government needs to be put on notice that these issues won't go away and as soon the embargo lifts, we'll pursue further claims,“ LHMU state organiser Kroy Day said.
