QPSU Queensland Health members who are still facing underpayments or lack of payments are encouraged to follow the process established for their district. For further details members can speak to their local union delegate or call our union office and speak to an Industrial Officer for advice and support on 1800 177 244.

Reminder: QPSU Annual General Meeting

What is a delegate?

The strength and effectiveness of the QPSU is built on a network of active workplace delegates. Our delegates are ordinary QPSU members who have volunteered to make an extraordinary contribution to their workplace.

As a workplace delegate your role is the most important one that a union member can have. A workplace delegate is often the first contact that members or potential members have with the Union when they need information or assistance.
