A food services worker, Toula Kyriazopoulos, 54, questioned why union membership fees were not being refunded following the misuse allegations.
The HSU sub-branch president at the Royal North Shore Hospital, Colin Lee, said despite the problems plaguing the union’s leadership, members were satisfied with the handling of the hospital’s present staffing levels dispute.
