Our Structure

The Association depends on the commitment of its members to make a difference. The more active and involved you are, the stronger the union. Membership empowers nurses and midwives to actively participate in shaping every aspect of their profession, from pay claims and workload relief to workers compensation and legal protection .

Active democratic branches throughout the state allow members to control their own agenda and ensure that each workplace has a voice in the Association’s direction.

Our Values

The NSWNMA conducts itself with integrity and courage, demonstrating creative and innovative approaches.

Collectivism

We are powerful when we act together as a collective. This is how we amplify the voices of members to improve their working lives and professions and stand in solidarity for the greater good of our society.

Equity

We achieve true equity by valuing and including diverse people and perspectives. Diversity reflects the strength of our communities across class, culture, religion, age, gender, sexuality and ability. Inclusion ensures everyone belongs, can participate fully, and is heard and respected.

Integrity

We are guided by our values. We act professionally, ethically and respectfully, with accountability and transparency and by doing the right thing, even when it’s difficult.

Courage

We embrace challenging situations to pursue better outcomes for nurses, midwives, carers and our communities. Speaking up and empowering members by being bold and persistent even when it is uncomfortable.
