Waikato DHB to reduce services during nursing strike
The nursing strike planned for Thursday 5 July has been cancelled and will not go ahead on that date. However Waikato DHB has received notice of a second strike on Thursday 12 July. The NZNO union and the DHBs have agreed a revised offer that will be taken to NZNO members this week and we expect to know the outcome of that ballot on Tuesday 10 July.
We are continuing our contingency planning for the proposed strike on 12 July which will impact on a number of services provided by our hospitals.
