Nearly 30 Healthcare Workers in Herat Strike Over Unpaid Salaries

Published 22/10/2024
SHARE

RASC News Agency: Reports from Herat indicate that employees of several healthcare facilities in the province have initiated a strike due to the non-payment of their salaries. According to sources, around 30 workers have not received their wages for over three months and have resorted to industrial action to demand their rightful compensation. The healthcare workers, hailing from various centers, including the Turghundi Township Health Center, Koshk Rabat-e-Sangi, the Comprehensive Health Center in Pashtun Zarghun district, Rawashan Comprehensive Health Center in Injil district, and the “Sang Kotl” Health Center in Gulran district, launched their strike on Tuesday, October 22.

 

These employees have firmly stated that they will not resume work until their salaries are fully disbursed. They have called upon the relevant authorities to address the issue promptly, emphasizing the necessity for timely payments to ensure that critical healthcare services continue uninterrupted. Furthermore, the striking workers have specifically criticized the Afghanistan Development Assistance (ADA) and the Organization for Health Promotion & Management (OHPM), which were tasked with disbursing their wages. These organizations have been accused of negligence, while the provincial public health administration has been similarly faulted for its indifference toward the issue.

 

As of now, the local Taliban authorities in the Herat public health department have refrained from commenting on the strike. This protest echoes previous incidents in Kabul and other provinces, where healthcare workers have similarly halted their operations due to unpaid salaries. The striking employees have expressed deep frustration with both the Taliban administration and international aid organizations, condemning what they see as a blatant lack of accountability. Their grievances reflect a broader concern over the failure to provide financial support and ensure the welfare of the healthcare workforce in Afghanistan.
