500 health workers terminated

Written by

Speaking to IGIHE, the Ministry of Health (MINISANTE) Spokesperson, Malik Kayumba confirmed the news saying there are reforms in public service that are being implemented by the Ministry of Public Service and Labour.

“Currently MINISANTE is conducting reforms in its affiliated institutions; it is in that regard that these workers’ responsibilities were shifted to Public and Environmental Healthworkers who they have always been working closely with in Health Centers,” he said.

He said that majority of those who will be affected studied social sciences while their responsibilities would be basically performed by these who studied Public and Environmental Health studies.

Solange Mukamwiza working at Bugarura Health Center in Gatsibo District told IGIHE that they were shocked with the news of impending loss of jobs.

“It is terrible to lose your job;we have been given one month to leave without any termination benefits. f. We had been working for one year renewable contract and being paid by Global Fund. Contracts had expired on December 31st 2017 and we were given one month contract which will last until 31st this month. We have been surprised hearing that it is the end of our the job,” she said.

How can you be sure that some one who didn’t perform in his domain (EHO) during more than 8 years will be better when combined with community

If community is not in social sciences where can you range it? Community health supervisors where in they domain results of they hard work can be seen by everyone who want to see. Nobody else can do better
