Former union leader Kathy Jackson has been ordered to pay about $1.4 million after a damning judgement found she stole money from the Health Services Union. Federal Court Justice Richard Tracey found Ms Jackson guilty of misusing her position as head of the Health Services Union to fraudulently gain financial advantage. Ms Jackson was found to have misappropriated union money in a variety of ways, including large cash withdrawals, the misuse of three credit cards and from a financial settlement from a Melbourne cancer hospital.
