Public sector workers in northwest Tasmania, including teachers, firefighters, and health staff, are on a three-day strike over a rejected 3% pay rise, causing school delays and prompting rallies in Launceston and Hobart.
Unions call the offer inadequate amid rising costs, staffing shortages, and a 22% pay increase for politicians.
Workers demand better pay, overtime solutions, and safer working conditions, with further strikes planned.
The government defends the offer as fair, citing added leave, while warning of financial constraints and a projected $13 billion debt by 2027/28, which includes 2,500 public job cuts.
