Health workers have threatened to begin a nationwide strike on Monday next week.
They accused the Council of Governors (CoG) of delaying the confirmation of Universal Health Coverage (UHC) staff to permanent and pensionable employment despite Parliament allocating funds for the transition.
The Health Union Caucus said the industrial action will commence at midnight on Sunday if county governments fail to address their grievances, warning that continued delays have left thousands of health workers uncertain about their jobs, salaries and medical cover.
