Our national voice

Speaking out for equity and social justice

At PSNZ, we undertake advocacy on national policy, operational and wider social issues arising from the work and experience of our regional organisations. In keeping with our values and strategic goals we collaborate with stakeholder partners for a stronger collective voice that decision makers will listen to.

We represent our workforces and raise our voice on behalf of those we serve, to support, inform and influence better policy and decision making.

Our Positions
