The medical unions have convened this Monday concentrations in all communities as a prior step to the “great demonstration” that will be held next Thursday at the gates of the Ministry of Health against the new framework and demand a regulation of the doctors. In Madrid, they have concentrated in front of the Congress of Deputies.
“For the negotiation of this document, a specific union representation system is necessary, which prevents negotiation from being diluted in the generality. We must be the doctors and options the only protagonists of the elaboration of the document, because it is essential CESM); Andalusian medical union (SMA); The Association of Physicians and Higher Titles of Madrid (Amyst), Euskadi Medical Union (SME), Canary Islands Medical Employee Union (Semca) and Omega Union (Galicia’s Faculture Union. They defend that their will is “to make a statute of the statute of Doctor to attract doctors and options and eliminate everything that worsens “their” working conditions. ”
The next action will be Thursday, the day that the new meeting is scheduled in which the department led by Mónica García and the unions to resume the negotiations of their working conditions and whose draft has turned on doctors. They complain, among other issues, that the draft maintains a mandatory 48 -hour day and raises a special of up to 150 hours more; Do not comput the weekly daily rest hours and force your recovery.
The Rebate Ministry, however, that the text specifies that the mandatory 48 -hour day is the maximum limit in four -monthly, but not mandatory computation. “Today the limit of the duration of the day is 24 hours. The proposal is that the stop is 17 hours, that leaves freedom and flexibility to organize shifts and guards as you want (12, 15, 17 hours …) but that falls on the roof of management and negotiation ”, Said Secretary of State, Javier Padilla, in his social networks.
A system that “retains” and “fidelice”
Regarding the controversy with the 150 hours, it would be the maximum limit, not an obligation, and would apply to those who want It happens now. Its compensation is negotiated in the autonomous communities, but in any case, according to Health, the new Statute raises “for the first time” put “a floor to this payment so that it is not thrown down” this price.
The unions ask, among other things, a remuneration increase that “equate to the remuneration of the rest of the countries of Europe and avoid the escape” and a “new professional classification that takes into account the degree required in our profession and the degree of responsibility of doctors and options ”. “You cannot match different university degrees that have different training requirements under the same A1 group. We want a specific A1 level for doctors or a new classification that really reflects the training demands for exercise and the responsibility, ”they claim.
They also censor the “rigid” system of incompatibilities raised, which demands exclusive dedication in the public to section chiefs and other positions of responsibility of the National Health System. An exclusivity that would be accompanied by their corresponding remuneration, according to the minister, who defended the measure with this argument: “No one imagines that someone can work in Coca-Cola and Pepsi at the same time. We know that it generates conflicts of interest and bad practices that harm our national health system. ”
“We need stability in employment, but this document imposes the incorporation and permanence in the destinations awarded for a while; and forced mobility. Again, restrictive measures that produce rejection, against the objective, which is to have more professionals, ”they point out in the manifesto.
But what most soliviantes doctors is the refusal to recognize the specificity of their profession with its own statute, which would be “the only solution for the health system to retain and fidelice” to these professionals. Something that Health rejects because, in the words of its person responsible, “the Framework Statute belongs to all professionals of the National Health System, to each and every one of them.”
