KMPDU PUSHES FOR 55% SALARY INCREMENT FOR DOCTORS

The Kenya Medical Practitioners, Pharmacists and Dentists Union (KMPDU) has pushed for the government to adhere to the proposals in the 2025–2029 Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA).
KMPDU Secretary General Dr Davji Atellah said the proposed agreement seeks to improve the welfare of doctors across the country, from interns to specialist consultants.

Among the proposals is a 55 per cent salary increment for doctors.

Speaking at the KMPDU Annual Delegates Conference (ADC) held at Safari Park Hotel in Nairobi, Dr Davji Atellah said doctors have not received any salary increment since 2017, despite the sharp rise in the cost of living and inflation.

He maintained that the proposed 55% increase was reasonable considering the current economic conditions facing healthcare workers.

Dr Davji Atellah also criticised the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC), accusing it of frustrating previous attempts to secure better pay for doctors despite growing economic pressure.

The union is also proposing automatic employment for doctors graduating every year, alongside improved medical insurance cover for doctors working in counties.

Dr.Davji Atellah expressed confidence that the new leadership would continue pushing for improved welfare and better working conditions for healthcare workers.

He further noted that the union had made progress in securing better treatment for interns.

Viva KMPDU

A New Day for the Healers:

​My fellow doctors, my colleagues, my friends, all Kenyans:
​As I take my oath of Office to serve as the National Chairperson KMPDU for a second term, I am humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you’ve bestowed upon me again, and mindful of the sacred oath I have just taken.

To serve as a "first among equals" in this noble profession is not merely an office—it is a duty to the men and women who wake up every day to perform the quiet miracles of healing.

​We meet at a moment of great consequence. We know the challenges that sit heavy in the KMPDU tray; they not even be reduced to being just items on an agenda, but the lived realities of your daily lives.
• ​The uncertainty of employment that leaves doctors frustrated and patients at risk.
• ​The gaps in training that stall our progress compromising the very healthcare we are supposed to offer.
• ​The shortages that stretch our wards thin and stretch the quality of care even thinner.
• ​The heavy toll on mental wellness and the yearning for a clear path of career progression.
​We must approach these issues not with the leisure of those who have time to waste, but with the "fierce urgency of now."

​Now, let’s be clear about the road ahead. We know that as a union, we do not wield the sword of the state, nor do we hold the keys to the public purse. In the eyes of the powerful, we may seem overmatched. But what they fail to understand is that our strength is not measured in budgets or decrees. Not in swords or purses.

​Our strength is found in the power of our solidarity. It is the simple, act of showing up for one another. It is the realization that a grievance for one doctor is a cause for us all. It is the understanding that while our individual struggles may feel intimate and lonely, our collective resolve is an unbreakable force.

​The years ahead will be a dance on an arena of thorns. There will be setbacks. There will be those who tell us we ask for too much. But I believe—I know—that if we remain anchored in our common purpose, if we lean on each other's shoulders, and if we walk this path with God’s grace, we shall reach that higher ground.

​Together, we will not just endure; we will prevail.

God Bless KMPDU. God Bless Our Resilient Country Kenya.

​Thank you - The work starts now!

Dr. Abi Mwachi
National Chairperson
KMPDU.

📢 #EpisodeIII - The Communication Bridge: If a doctor makes the right clinical decision but fails to explain it, has the treatment truly succeeded?

The burden of clarity cannot be left to chance. It is not the patient’s responsibility to decode a complex health system; it is the system’s responsibility to make itself understandable.

In high-pressure healthcare situations, communication is not a courtesy. It is a clinical safeguard.

Why Caregivers Must Lead the Conversation

- Demystifying Scarcity: Patients do not see ICU shortages or triage protocols. They see urgency, pain, and fear. Explaining the "why" behind delays does more than manage expectations—it preserves trust in the system itself.

- Preventing the Perception of Negligence: Conflict often arises not from clinical failure, but from silence. Transparency about risks and limitations transforms uncertainty into shared understanding.

- Empowering the Patient: Clear communication allows patients to participate in care. This shifts the experience from decisions made for them, to decisions made with them.

💡 THE BOTTOM LINE: Clinical expertise saves lives, but clear communication sustains trust. In a system under pressure, a well-explained decision is as vital as the treatment itself.

Dear KMPDU Members,

We must stand with those who stand with us: without BUTs, without IFs, without excuses. The current National leadership has consistently stood with us and continues to fight for our rights.

They have been with us on the streets, negotiated on our behalf in boardrooms, fought for us in courtrooms, in the media and on every platform available. They have shown us clearly where they stand on matters affecting us, with one voice and unwavering commitment. We are assured they will continue protecting us. Let’s not lose sight of that.

Having worked closely with the team, I can say without fear of contradiction: let’s give them another chance to serve us. We have a collective responsibility to vote for those who have proven they will safeguard our rights, our welfare, our future and the future of our profession.
