Doctors are urging Canberra’s Calvary Public Hospital to withdraw its legal action against a junior doctor who is leading a class action over unpaid wages, branding it a “nasty legal tactic”. 

A series of class actions against health services in Victoria, NSW and the ACT have been launched on behalf of tens of thousands of junior doctors who claim they have not been paid for unrostered overtime.
