Doctors will go on indefinite strike across the country starting October 28.
The Medical Strike Committee has announced today the call for indefinite strikes starting on October 28th across Spain to express their rejection of the Draft Law on the Framework Statute promoted by the Minister of Health, Mónica García, and to demand a specific regulation for the medical and professional group.
Medical unions in Spain have announced indefinite strikes starting October 28 to protest against the government's proposed Healthcare Framework Law, led by Health Minister Mónica García. The unions, including CESM, SMA, and Metges de Catalunya, reject the law and demand a separate statute for medical professionals. They claim the law ignores months of strikes and negotiations, and they want to negotiate better working conditions, including a 35-hour workweek and fair compensation for excess hours. The strikes are a follow-up to previous one-week monthly strikes from February to June.
