NSWHP Cytology Lab Roster changes at St George Hospital


Monday 16 February, 2026

NSWHP is proposing roster changes in the Cytology Lab at St George Hospital. This is your opportunity to have a say on how this affects you.
 
  • Management claim that while the current rostering system was designed to create a balance in staff having to start at 9:30am, the 9:30am starts are still disproportionately impacting one staff member.
  • The proposed new system will rotate staff through the varying time slots throughout each week, rather than 1 specific time for 1 week blocks.
  • Please note that the proposed change cannot take effect until after consultation has concluded.

It is important for union members to lead this discussion.
 
Please send your feedback to restructure@hsu.asn.au by COB Friday 20 February with subject line NSWHP Cytology Lab Roster Changes at St George Hospital.
