The health workers of Tondo Medical Center held a snake rally and noise barrage inside the hospital premises to air their disappointment at the Department of Health and the government over lack of concern and gross negligence for the well-being of healthcare personnel.
“We are so disappointed with the DOH and the Department of Budget and Management with the meager budget that they released for health workers’ risk allowance. In DOH-retained hospitals alone, there are 67,000 total health workers. Therefore, that funding for special risk allowance is insufficient,” Ernesto Bulanadi, President of TMC Employees’ Association-Alliance of Health Workers said on Friday, Aug. 27.
Under the Bayanihan to Recover as One Act, SRA is not only the COVID-19 benefits that a health worker may receive, but also meal, accommodation, and transportation allowance, active hazard duty pay , and the COVID-19 compensation benefit.
