Osakidetza's union majority will announce mobilizations for autumn today
SATSE, ELA, LAB, CCOO and UGT will release today the calendar of protests for the coming months to demand job improvements for all Osakidetza groups, critical of the agreement reached between the Department of Health and the medical union and demanding an agreement for all professionals.
The unions of Osakidetza SATSE, ELA, LAB, CCOO and UGT will present today the calendar of mobilizations for the autumn. The unions, with a majority in the Health Bureau, will demand an improvement in the working conditions of all the groups that make up the Basque health system.
Trade unions announced earlier this summer that they will be mobilizing to demand an agreement that includes all professionals. This Thursday they will release the schedule of planned protests.
The trade unions have been very critical of the agreement reached between the Department of Health of the Basque Government and the medical union on the guards and salaries of these professionals, which, in their view, violates collective bargaining and promotes division among professionals.
SATSE, ELA, LAB, CCOO and UGT have defended a collective agreement for all professionals in Osakidetza.
Doctors have also announced mobilizations.
On the other hand, doctors have announced mobilizations for the autumn, as the Basque and Navarre medical unions have joined the call for the state medical union.
The strike committee that brings these unions together will meet today in Madrid to set a schedule of mobilizations.
The call comes after the Minister of Health, Monica Garcia, opened the door for the first time to consider a statute of her own for doctors, albeit under certain conditions.
Until now, the minister had refused to negotiate two different statutes, believing that they would be incompatible and would exclude other health professionals.
Garcia has stated that the Ministry of Health would be willing to consider this option after the adoption of a statute regulating the working conditions of all health professionals.
Meanwhile, the trade union majority in Osakidetza will announce today the mobilizations to demand job improvements for all professionals in the Basque health system.
