HSU Statement

Health Services Union < 1 min read

Lloyd Williams, HSU National Secretary said:

“The broader Health Services Union is horrified by the charges that have been laid by the Fair Work Commission against Diana Asmar and six other individuals from the Health Workers Union. Our union has no tolerance for misuse of members funds and it’s important to specify that this is isolated to the Victoria Health Workers Union branch. The Union’s national executive has consistently sought to stand Diana Asmar aside while this investigation has been underway.

“The Union’s legal representatives will spend the next few days examining the best way to continue our efforts to swiftly restore this branch of the Union to full integrity, with a robust focus on its 16,000 hard working members.”
