    The earliest Government listens to us the better for All of us. Why do only receive lip service and praise when it comes to our welfare we are neglected.

    Why is the COS for medical laboratory Professionals delaying? Is someone sleeping on his job?
    These are essential service providers. The government should give them what is due them.

    It's really surprising to know the professional who generates more than 60% of evidence to enable clinician to manage patient properly is rather treated with disrespect. Would the politician still provide service without a c ...

    I think the 14 days are too much, they are aware of our demand and are just not serious with us. The most important department in the hospital is definitely the Laboratory and I therefore do not understand why we are treated ...

    Fair wages and salaries commission should do the needful to avert any industrial action by our laboratory professionals. We are sick and tired of the lackadaisical attitude of duty bearers

    "A sighted person working in the dark is not the same as a blind person working in the dark."
    The risk levels are not the same.
    Medical laboratory professionals are at very high risk.

    Does it always have to be an action or strike alert by worker's unions for the right things to be done? Our leaders need to be very serious and sit up. These things pull us back as a country.

  • Sarsah 4 months ago

    We have waited patiently for a very long time and our employer must do the needful now.
