Further Food and Patient Support Services Changes at HealthShare NSW (HSNSW)

Wednesday 25 March, 2026

Dear member,
 
A further restructure within Food and Patient Support Services is being proposed by HSNSW. This is your opportunity to have a say on how this affects you.
  • The proposed changes involve significant job cuts and changes to existing positions within Nutrition Services.
  • The proposal would specifically result in the following:
  1. Deletion of 2x Food Services Dieticians
  2. Deletion of Nutrition Services Technical Lead HM4 position, to be regraded to HM3
  3. Deletion of 2x Food and Nutrition ICT Coordinators
  4. Deletion of 2x Supply Chain Operation Leads; and
  5. Deletion of Supply Chain Process Manager (currently vacant for 2 years).
  • As always, the HSU is seriously concerned with such a significant number of job cuts.
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 Thursday 2 April with subject line HSNSW FPSS Further Restructure and Significant Job Cuts.
