Ex-Health Services Union boss Kathy Jackson has admitted defrauding her former employer to the tune of nearly $70,000.
Jackson pleaded guilty in Victoria's County Court on Monday to two charges of obtaining financial advantage by deception.
Court documents show she misused her job at the union to falsely evade $67,792.85 in personal debts between July 2003 and November 2010.
Instead, Jackson claimed certain transactions were for union-related expenditure.
Her guilty plea means it can be revealed she was in 2019 convicted of two other charges of obtaining a financial advantage by deception, committed in 2008.
A jury in last year's trial acquitted her of 18 theft charges, and one each of obtaining financial advantage and property by deception.
