Protection without the politics

NPAA members save ~50% on their membership fees and subscription to RUSH when compared to ALP-registered trade unions, without sacrificing legal protection, PI insurance or peace of mind. You save up to $374 with us because none of your dues go to the ALP. See T&Cs for details.

The Nurses' Professional Association of Australia (NPAA) is an industrial association whose principal purpose is to protect and promote the interests of members in matters concerning their employment or professional engagement. No membership fees are used to support any political party (including the ALP), so we are able to source and/or provide representation for all members, on all issues, better than our competitors. RUSH subscribers are joined to both NPAA, and their relevant State-based professional association upon subscribing.
