The Kenya Union of Clinical Officers had last week issued a seven-day strike notice for their grievances to be addressed, otherwise they walk off the job until further notice.
KUCO chairperson Peterson Wachira on Sunday said the strike decision was necessitated by failure by the two levels of government to heed their demands despite a strike notice.
They are demanding that the national and county governments issue confirmation letters on permanent and pensionable terms to UHC staff hired during the Covid-19 period and to national TB programme clinicians and all members currently on contractual terms.
