Nov 19 - Contract Workers “Messed Around By Government” According To GSD
According to the GSD, it has come to their attention that GHA contract workers are not being allowed to apply for permanent and pensionable (P&P) positions, despite having worked for a continuous period of three and a half years on fixed term contracts renewed on a rolling basis. Instead, say the GSD, the GHA is telling these individuals, who are specialist nurses and work in specialised areas with a high level of expertise and experience, to take a break in service of three weeks, unpaid, and then to commit to another four years of renewable fixed term 10 months contracts before being eligible to apply for P&P.
