JimT Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 As an employee pharmacist my job as well as pharmacists and sales assistants Australia Wide is under threat. The Government has just introduced some changes without any consultation to the industry which will effectively wipe $90,000.00 off the bottom line of an average business as well as $500,000.00 off the business goodwill. This will mean job losses, reduction in services, reduction in trading hours and forced closures of smaller businesses which will impact suburbs and towns which only have 1 pharmacy. see YouTube clip attached and if you see fit go to your local pharmacy and sign petition to counter this. http://www.youtube.com/thepharmacyguildThanks Jim...

And no one with jobs, so no one to spend money with them. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
