Junior Doctors have warned that if tomorrow’s strike fails to get them what they want, they’ll do it again next week.
Non-consultant hospital doctors are to due stage 24 hours of industrial action, in protest over what they describe as ‘dangerously’ long work days.
According to the Irish Medical Organisation, 85 per cent of NCHDs routinely work shifts of over 24 hours at a time.
Industrial action is planned for tomorrow, however the IMO says it can be avoided if the health authority promises to cut ‘dangerously’ long hours.
The HSE claims 15 thousand patients will be affected by the strike and are appealing to the IMO to return to the Labour Relations Commission for talks.
