Doctors and nurses will leave NZ due to pay freeze, health unions warn

From Morning Report, 7:18 am on 6 May 2021

Health unions say doctors and nurses will up and move to Australia following the government's freeze on public sector salaries.

Under new government rules, three-quarters of people working in the public sector are unlikely to get a salary bump until at least 2024.

Border workers, health staff, prison guards and social workers are just some of those affected.
