    How much does the union get out of that salary?
    Each member pays 1.25% of their base salary to AUPE in the form of tax-deductible union dues (dues are not paid on overtime or premium payments).

    I think we should remove tax deductible status of union dues.

    All the dipper union people like paying more taxes right comrades?

    Do we think unions are charities or something?

    Probably relevant? What's the cost to the employer (taxpayer) for that $18/hr role after benefits, pension etc? I think rule of thumb in private sector is around 2x salary (if you expect bonuses). Does this role "cost" AHS more or less than $34/hr? That's where a lot of the potential savings for outsourcing comes from.
    Exactly. I have zero issues with them making $18 an hour, considering fast food workers get $15+ but don't have to deal with exposure to everything in a hospital, BUT it's the total compensation, and direct cost to the government that's ridiculous.

    Are they actually exposed to more?

    High volume of people with no check/testing, or low volume where infection control processes are in place managed by security and staff at all times with enhanced cleaning standards?

    I don't mean just covid, EVERYTHING in a hospital. Every virus and disease that walks through the door. Smaller amount of people with a much higher percentage of disease.

    Plus if you've ever spent much time in a hospital, you know how fucking depressing it is. Imagine serving the same bleak faces everyday watching them get worse and worse, then one day they just stop showing up. It would be very emotionally challenging.

    My mom was a lab tech at a hospital. She got to experience the same thing. She didn't get paid enough to deal with that.

    Edit: oh, then she was completely fucked over by the cafeteria workers because they were part of the same union, lol.

    Then they will just call themselves a religious organization.

    The only difference is union will actually disown you if you are a pedo. Their protection only go so far.

    And then as a society, what value do we place on this "good union job" vs the presumable worse private sector job for the same task?
    Sounds like a temp job, $17 during day and probably $19 during nights and weekends. Would they pull a retail trick where it would cost them way less if you give them less than 20hrs per week?

    Why the fuck is the Finance Minister looking into this? Was the Minister of Forestry and Indigenous Drum Circles not available? Do we not have a HEALTH MINISTER?

    Honestly a religious organization is probably the best way to describe the mentality of the average union.

    They're paying hundreds of thousands a year for social media managers and they still need people like Anne Jordan to astroturf?

    Party just can't help but spend money.

    LOL, their logo is stolen, too. A War Room Special (who are on their third or fourth logo now).

    They're allowed to like whatever they want, including fake grassroots pages created by party members named in an electoral fraud investigation.

    If they wanted the group to look more legit, they probably should have waited a bit so that more than half the followers of this grassroots group wasn't party members, a third of which working for the Minister of Health. This is why you pay professionals like Russians to do this kind of stuff, avoid amateurish mistakes.

    It's just a low-effort astroturfing campaign, nobody's accusing your favorite party of being pedophiles and human traffickers. Pull yourself together and calm down.
