The Kenya Medical Practitioners Pharmacists and Dentists Union (KMPDU)Â Leadership on Tuesday met with hundreds of intern doctors and unemployed doctors at the Ufungamano Hall to deliberate on delayed posting, delayed payment, underemployment and unemployment of doctors.
According to KMPDU, they listened to their heart-wrenching narrations of what these young colleagues go through and agreed to push for the immediate commencement of negotiations of the 2021-2025 CBA which they believe will comprehensively address these issues.
“We also agreed that some of their concerns like payment of delayed salaries and posting of interns could not wait any further and must be sorted out within the next 2 weeks or they withdraw their skills,” the union said.
The union also thanked all those who made it to the meeting and urged them to continue having faith in their union.
