March 17, Colombo (LNW): The Academy of Health Professionals has announced its intention to go ahead with a planned 24-hour strike, which will begin at 7.00 AM tomorrow (18).
The strike comes after failed discussions between the association’s representatives and officials from the Ministry of Health.
Ravi Kumudesh, President of the Academy, stated that the decision to proceed with the strike was made due to the lack of progress in resolving key issues during the recent negotiations.
Despite efforts to engage in constructive talks, the association has expressed frustration at the inability to reach an agreement with the Ministry, prompting the decision to take industrial action.
The strike, which will affect a wide range of health professionals, is expected to disrupt services across various healthcare facilities.
