新西兰克雷斯特医院护士因薪酬和参加工会而罢工,这标志着其121年历史上的第一次罢工。 Nurses at New Zealand’s Crest Hospital strike over pay and union access, marking the first strike in its 121-year history.

新西兰帕尔默斯顿北区克雷斯特医院的员工将于2025年12月2日罢工,因为医院拒绝允许像医务员和管理员这样的低薪工人加入工会的集体谈判小组. Staff at Crest Hospital in Palmerston North, New Zealand, are striking on December 2, 2025, over the hospital’s refusal to allow lower-paid workers like orderlies and administrators to join their union’s collective bargaining group. 新西兰护士组织(NZNO)说,只有在工作人员放弃工会会员资格或达到业绩目标,导致与公立医院工作人员相比,每小时薪酬差距最高达7美元的情况下,医院才提供更高的工资。 The New Zealand Nurses Organisation (NZNO) says the hospital offers higher pay only if staff forgo union membership or meet performance goals, resulting in pay gaps of up to $7 per hour compared to public hospital workers. 罢工从下午2点开始,下午4点结束,凸显了对公平和平等代表权的关切,特别是对诸如麻醉技术员等作用的关切,后者的工会参与受到限制。 The strike, starting at 2pm and ending at 4pm, highlights concerns over fairness and equal representation, especially for roles like anaesthetic technicians whose union access is restricted. 12月3日将举行调解会议,12月12日计划举行第二次罢工。 A mediation session is set for December 3, with a second strike planned for December 12. 此次行动是医院121年历史上的第一次。 The action marks the first in the hospital’s 121-year history.
