Queensland Health is aware that Queensland Nurses and Midwives’ Union (QNMU) members have voted to take protected industrial action, which will start from 5 June 2025, for an indefinite period.

Preparations are underway to ensure continuity of services and every effort is being made to minimise any potential disruptions during this period.
