  • HSNSW is proposing a change to staff rosters at Tamworth Hospital.
  • Management claim this would result in fairer weekend rostering arrangements, and a draft roster is attached to this letter.
  • HSNSW proposed a 4-week trial to commence 2 February 2026, with implementation occurring from 2 March 2026 if successful.
