Health workers strike islandwide for third day

Health workers’ island-wide strike enters day three The island-wide strike launched by 18 trade unions in the health sector, including those affiliated with nursing, supplementary and paramedical services, entered its third consecutive day today (February 09).

As the discussions held with the Minister of Health yesterday had little to no effect in meeting their demands, the health sector trade unions decided to continue with their island-wide strike.

He also noted that they are volunteering to provide assistance for any issues concerning Covid-19 that emerge at examination centres where the G.C.E. Advanced Level exam is being held.
