Health unions declare national protest day
The All Ceylon Health Trade Union Federation said Wednesday (03) was declared a national protest day.
Its chairman Samantha Koralearachchi said protests will be launched at all hospitals nationwide, at noon on Wednesday (03).
The protests are being launched based on six key demands, including a five-day week for hospital staff, a stringent process for promotions and transfers, and a transport allowance.
Koralearachchi said repeated requests for a discussion with Minister of Health Dr. Ramesh Pathirana over the past month have gone unanswered.
He urged authorities to direct attention towards the issues faced by hospital staff.
