Daily-wage health workers seek more benefits
A group representing hospital daily-wage workers nationwide is calling for better fringe benefits, saying they also deserve a work benefit upgrade being offered salaried staff as a reward for their good work in containing the coronavirus.
The move follows Monday’s announcement by Deputy Prime Minister and Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul that the first batch of 25,000 health workers, who were permanent state employees under the Public Health Ministry, had been upgraded to civil servant status.
