According to the local media outlet’s interview with the health minister, Amar Ramadhin, every available tool is being used to introduce a new pay scale for healthcare workers this year. He claims that there have been discussions about this for a while with the Netherlands since we will use their model. According to the minister, applying a pay series with position and job description would go too far and have a delayed impact. Ramadhin claims that a new compensation scale for healthcare benefits is a component of the recovery plan, which the government has pledged to launch this year.
The minister reports that a wage has also been decided upon and that fifteen posts have now been described. He claims that discussions are currently taking place between the union, the ministry, and the various hospitals. The minister highlighted that while he recognizes that everyone wants to earn a particular amount, the current state of the economy makes this impossible. He argued that it was crucial to establish the financial capacity of the nation. The minister stated, “We want to pay employees well, but if there is no money, there is not much we can do.
The minister admits that some unions might not agree with some of his plans, but he is open to criticism. The fact that we have already moved in the correct path is crucial, according to Ramadhin.
