The NSW Government reduced the NSW Health Budget by $3 billion over four years, including a $2 billion cut to local hospital health budgets and $775 million cut through a wage expense cap. This is estimated to affect 3600 jobs. Previously, the NSW Government capped wage increases for most NSW employees to 2.5% annually, reduced workers compensation benefits, and stripped $1.7 billion from the NSW Education budget. The 'Our HSU' team plans to immediately launch a campaign to protect conditions from these cuts by organizing new union members, rebuilding alliances with other unions, and overhauling financial systems.
On February 4, 2011, Pam Silberman, president & CEO of North Carolina Institute of Medicine, made this presentation to Chamber members about federal health reform.
Group health insurance coverage is a vital component of employee benefits offered by companies like Kang Group Services. It provides medical coverage to a group of people, typically employees of a business, and often extends to their dependents. This insurance plan ensures that employees have access to necessary healthcare services, promoting their well-being and productivity.

ESI is a multidimensional social security system tailored to provide socio-economic protection to the worker population and their dependents covered under the scheme. ESI is completely different from insurance that is provided for the general public. It supports full medical care and reasonable economic assistance to the beneficiaries for benefits like sickness, maternity, disablement and death due to employment injury. It is one of the most effective measures available to employees in a working environment.
