Health professionals to launch another strike action tomorrow (VIDEO)

Date:

An islandwide strike action is set to be launched from 7 am tomorrow (07) with the participation of 18 trade unions accompanying 60,000 health professionals, announced the Health Professionals’ Federation.

Speaking on behalf of the Federation, Saman Rathnapriya noted that the strike action would not be effective in 10 major medical facilities, including the Central Blood Bank, and that the hospitals treating Covid patients would both go on strike and volunteer their services.

Although trade unions had taken a number of actions on several occasions since November 09, 2021 to point out their demands to the health authorities and the government, no feedback has ever been given to date, he added.
