Government has asked medical doctors to return to work immediately and wait for it to process the new proposals on salaries by the end of November.

Doctors under the Uganda Medical Association laid down their tools on Monday November 6, 2017, claiming that Government has not heeded to their cries on better remuneration and favourable working conditions.

A series of engagements have been held at different administrative and political levels to address the concerns raised by the doctors.

In a joint statement, Hon. Dr. Jane Ruth Aceng and Hon. David Karubanga, Minister of Health Minister of State for Public Service, said government appreciates some of the issues raised by the Medical workers.
