Your HACSU workplace delegate DAYNA FRENCH Food Services Assistant

North West Regional Hospital WORKING in food services is a fast paced and physical role that involves prepping, delivering and service of food throughout the hospital and cafeteria area. While the workloads are high, I really enjoy the work and interaction with my colleagues.

I've been at the NWRH for nearly 25 years, most of my adult working

career, but before that I worked as a junior in domestic laundry services.

I have been a member in excess of 20 years, and moved into a delegate role to try and improve the everyday working conditions for my current and future colleagues.

I find it hard to hang my hat on one achievement, but I feel that over my time as a delegate I've assisted in unionising my workgroup and improving our day to day working environment.

I would like to see conditions continue to improve for workers making it an appetising career for future generations.

I enjoy getting away to my shack at Hellyer Beach every opportunity I get, and also like to relax with a bit of craft. Of course, I enjoy a quiet beer watching my beloved Collingwood play.

I would have to say that the whole Fast and Furious franchise are my favourite movies, I can’t single one out.
