Unions betray Sri Lankan health workers strike - World Socialist Web Site

Unions betray Sri Lankan health workers’ strike An indefinite strike launched on Monday by around 25,000 health workers across Sri Lanka was shut down by the trade unions the next day, without any of their demands being met. The strikers were from more than 15 supplementary medicine and paramedical services, including lab technicians, public health inspectors, midwives, pharmacists, radiographers and therapists. The Joint Council for Professions of Supplementary Medicine (JCPSM) and the Para Medical Service Front called the strike over 14 demands. These included professional and risk allowances, staff grade positions with a legitimate promotion system and the easing of workloads. The strike was called off after Health Minister Pavithra Wanniarachchi made a hollow promise to submit a “cabinet paper” on the unions’ demands next Monday.

Health sector faces strike gridlock amidst pandemic

By Rathindra Kuruwita The Joint Council of Professions Supplementary to Medicine (JCPSM) yesterday vowed to continue with its strike after discussions with Health Minister Pavithra Wanniarachchi failed. The strike launched yesterday by 14 unions has crippled the health sector. OPDs were not operational and PCR and rapid antigen tests, CT and MRI scans were not conducted. President of the JCPSM, Ravi Kumudesh said that the Minister had not been able to give an assurance that their concerns would be addressed. “The Minister could have at least promised to present a Cabinet paper about our concerns. However, she said she wanted time to decide whether to present a Cabinet paper or not. It is obvious that she is under pressure,” Kumudesh said.
