Federations discuss skills and training with health minister

Italy

The general secretaries of the three main public service federations FP-CGIL, CISL-FP and UIL FP/FPL met with the health minister to discuss contracts, skills, training, professional status and job security as essential elements of a health service for all citizens. The minister indicated her willingness to make progress on these issues.

They also want action on workloads, staff turnover and recognition of strenuous work.
