Bone Marrow Transfer Lab Changes at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital (RPAH)

Tuesday 26 May, 2026

Dear member,

 
NSW Health Pathology (NSWHP) has notified the HSU of proposed changes within the Bone Marrow Transfer (BMT) Lab at RPAH. This is your opportunity to have a say on how this affects you.

  • Management claim consultation has already occurred with staff who have agreed to trial an 8am start on high activity days. No further detail has been provided in relation to this trial e.g. how long it would be and how many days are “high activity days”.
  • Management have also stated that they plan to seek feedback only once the trial has already commenced, prior to meeting their obligations to consult on this change with HSU members.
  • The letter suggests that this is a minor change that all staff involved agree with, so it is vital that members’ thoughts are heard.

 
For more information, see the below links:

 
It is important for union members to lead this discussion.
 
Please send your feedback to restructure@hsu.asn.au by COB Tuesday 2 June with subject line NSWHP RPA Bone Marrow Transfer Lab Roster Changes.
 
Everyone affected by these changes needs to be a union member. Members deserve to have control over their working lives. Tell your colleagues now is the time to join.
