MEDICAL doctors in the public health sector have launched an online petition to try to press for a salary increase, claiming it to be sorely overdue, according to a statement sent to Newsday on February 21 by a group calling itself, Concerned Public Sector Doctors.
"Public-sector doctors in TT have gone nearly ten years without a salary increase, yet government officials have just approved raises of up to 76 per cent for themselves. This is a massive injustice, and doctors are finally taking action.
"Over 75 doctors and citizens have already signed a petition demanding fair salary negotiations, and the numbers are growing daily."
