NEWS:Nurses, leaders split over strike

 


The nurses and midwives in public service did not report for work in hospitals yesterday despite the cancellation of their strike by their union leadership.

On Sunday 29the may 2022, Mr Justus Cherop, the president of UNMU, called off the strike, which had disrupted service delivery in hospitals and other health centres.


The decision to cancel the strike came after Government last Friday threatened to terminate all health workers involved in the strike, who would not turn up to work on Monday.  


The nurses, midwives and allied health professionals said they want their salary enhanced to Shs3m for diploma holders, Shs1.3m for certificate holders and Shs4.8m for degree holders in line with the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) with the government in 2018.
