Thank you for helping us get to the first goalpost of 1000 support signatures. We still need to continue to share this Petition so that Australians know that it is not the Australian Government adding to the cost of living crisis, but the greedy CEO's behind Private Pathology companies, Healius, Sonic and Australian Clinical Labs. 

If they had agreed to meet with the Pathology Industry and ensure that the increase they are asking for is going to be used to increase the wages of the undervalued People in Pathology so we no longer have Staff shortage, which would improve the availability of opened collection rooms for samples to be taken, which would in turn mean more referrals to their company from the general doctor community. We could all go back to improving the basic operations for Pathology Services. Yet, in the past we have seen Government funding being used to balance off the other businesses they own that are running at a lost and not invested back into Pathology or People in Pathology. 

The PCA are working against a ticking time bomb trying to support our very skilled workers in the Pathology Sector, so we do not lose any more skilled staff. How do you feel knowing that the person taking your blood, is not qualified with any formal qualifications? 

Please continue to support and share this petition. We are also sharing our Campaign to our Colleagues, the Doctors writing the Pathology Referrals and if you can help with supporting the costs for Printing and posting for this part of the campaign, please financially support if you can by visiting this link;
