The Medical Union of the Balearic Islands (Simebal) has called for concentrations for this Monday at 11.00 a.m. in front of the doors of the health centers and hospitals of the archipelago, with the aim of showing the “discontent” of the collective, before the proposal of the Ministry of Health on the Draft Bill of the New Framework Statute.

These mobilizations are part of the statewide day of struggle in which the various unions of the different autonomous communities will participate, as explained by the trade union organization in a statement.

In the Balearic Islands, the main call will be made at the Son Espases Hospital but there are also protests organized in front of other health centers and hospitals in Mallorca, Menorca and Ibiza.

During the rally, a manifesto will be read and delivered, setting out the main demands of the medical profession, which“unanimously demands protection and decent working conditions for doctors”.

These demands include the drafting of a Statute for doctors, a new professional reclassification in accordance with their training and with remuneration links, and improvements in the retirement system and protection against incompatibilities.

They have also demanded a regulation of the working day on an equal footing with the rest of the workers and that everything that exceeds this day should be considered as paid overtime. At the same time, they ask for measures to protect the occupational health of doctors and to guarantee the reconciliation of work and personal life.

Similarly, Simebal has assured that this situation “will have a direct impact on the deterioration of the public healthcare system”, something which they have indicated would affect the country’s 48 million citizens.
