@MOH_Kenya, I urge the national government to hear our frustration.From the above screenshot, the counties are saying UHC staff are not their employees but employees of the(MOH),which is why they’re not considering to absorp them into P&P terms like their county staff.@scherargei
Thank you H.E Dr William Samoei Ruto for confirmation that all UHC Staff shall be transitioned into permanent and pensionable terms from this month to ensure they get value for their sacrifice since Covid-19 Pandemic era.

Blessed evening.
The National Government, through the Ministry of Health and in collaboration with county governments, has committed to absorb more than 7,500 health workers, originally contracted during the COVID-19 response, into permanent and pensionable terms.
This step is meant to secure the livelihoods of frontline professionals while strengthening Kenya's healthcare workforce, a critical pillar in the journey towards achieving Universal Health Coverage (UHC).
August Payslips will determine the future UHC Demos, whether we match to @MOH_Kenya or Not.

#RejectHalfPayForUHC .
Universal Health Coverage (UHC) staff have vowed to continue pressing for their rights despite a violent police crackdown during a peaceful protest in Nairobi on Tuesday.
The healthcare workers, supported by the Kenya National Union of Medical Laboratory Officers (KNUMLO), say they will not be intimidated or silenced by the excessive force used against them, including the firing of rubber bullets and teargas that left several injured, one of whom remains hospitalized with a broken leg.
KNUMLO, through Secretary General Pius Moriasi, has condemned the police brutality as a blatant violation of constitutional freedoms and a betrayal of frontline health workers.
In a setup where medics strike & patients suffer, UHC staff hold firm. Reward us with permanent & pensionable terms—Govt, act! #Absorb8571UHCStaff
@kmpdu@WHO@TheIntern254@MiskellahMD@KenyaMedics_KMA@katibainstitute@DrMundia@Davji@kUCOofficial @Njuri_Ncheeke This is the most selfish union we have ever known.
All TUESDAYS had been taken up and cleared by the UHC comrades specifically for UHC agenda.
But see your life.
KMPDU used UHC comrades to negotiate for their own MO agenda & left the UHC in 2024 after MOs were confirmed & sorted!
