MDCAN begins 21-day warning strike over salary disparity.
The Medical and Dental Consultants’ Association of Nigeria (MDCAN), Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University Teaching Hospital (COOUTH), Awka, has begun a 21-day warning strike in Anambra over non-implementation of Consolidated Medical Salary Structure (CONMESS).
The Chairman of MDCAN-COOUTH, Amaechi Nwachukwu, made the disclosure at a news conference on Monday in Awka.
Association is demanding that the CONMESS recently granted to resident doctors be extended to its members.
It warned that failure to implement the adjustment within the stipulated period would lead to an indefinite industrial action by its members.
Mr Nwachukwu said the association had earlier engaged the hospital management over their demand and received the assurances that the issue would be resolved.
He, however, expressed disappointment that the promised adjustment was yet to be reflected in the soon-to-be-paid October salary.
According to him, it is customary for any salary increment or allowance approved for resident doctors to be automatically extended to their supervising consultants.
“The consultants are responsible for training resident doctors and conducting medical research,” he said.
