25% Salary Deduction: Kaduna health workers threaten strike over alleged violation of labour rights amid COVID-19
An indefinite strike by the Kaduna State Healthcare Workers Unions and Associations is likely to commence on 19th June 2020 if the associations and stakeholders fail to reach an agreement on the issue of 25% deduction from the salaries of its members for April and May 2020.
The Kaduna State government and the state healthcare workers Unions and Associations have been at loggerheads over the state government’s 25% deductions from the salaries of about 11,000 health workers amid the COVID-19 outbreak, a situation the associations noted in violation of section 5 of the Nigerian Labour Act.
A communique issued and jointly signed at the end of its meeting in Kaduna by the Chairpersons of the health workers union explained that the meeting had all leaders of the associations in attendance.
