The Medical Unionof the Basque Country will begin a four-day strike on Tuesday, 9 December, which will oppose the draft Framework Statute, and every Tuesday from 27 January throughout the State.

Thus, fromTuesday 9 December toFriday 12 December, hospitals and outpatient clinics will only have minimum services, emergencies and irreversible pathologies.

Trade unions are calling for an improvement in the working conditions of all workers in the National Health System, both health and non-health, although associations have criticised the fact that the Department of Health is not being clear on many issues affecting workers, including early retirement, personal reclassification or the 35-hour working day.

In addition, from 27 January,an indefinite strike  will be held throughout the state.

It's not a capricious or corporatist claim. We're talking about social justice. "

"Social justice"

The College of Doctors in Álavahas stressed that demonstrating is "almost one of the duties" of doctors to denounce "a situation of injustice that continues over time."

The College ensures that only a statute of its own can reflect the specific characteristics of the profession and defend a specific regulation.

In fact, the Alavesa organization denounces the precarious and unfair situation of professionals, which the authorities "hide under the vocational premise".

"It's not a capricious or corporatist claim. We're talking about social justice."
