In addition to the nurses, there are other disappointments that the strike and protests presented if the required changes do not occur quickly. The union of nurses, Moms and Professionals [...]
The union of nurses, Moms and other health professionals has warned strike and protests if their demands are not met.
Victor Havolly, chairman of this Union, said about RTV Duagjini said social dialogue has been introduced by failing to deliver demands as payment for night shift, job risk and wage law.
This government and whatever happens next at the time we go on strike because the strike is the last union action by draining all possibilities of social dialogue and we, as we seem to have exhausted these possibilities, I have thousands of messages from nurses who are willing to do everything under the union organization law to achieve their goals. No more fraud has ended the word social dialogue of either this government or others, all policy actors are accomplices to this”, said Fitim Havoli, sent in to Telegrafi.
Havolli says the 300-euro extension promised by the Kosovo government itself has not come up with the USKKUK nurses' accounts for what it says has even more impacted their democratisation.
Nurse Amira Abazi, who works in intensive care at the Infectious Clinic, says that since the beginning of the pandemic, she has served patients with COVID-19.
The March “we're fully committed to patients with COVID, but our work hasn't been valued enough”, it declared for RTV Dukagjin, nurse Amira Abazi.
Furthermore, the Nurses' Union says many nurses are leaving Kosovo, and many others are looking for new opportunities to release Kosovo and work on the health system.
