French PM announces overtime pay doubled in hospitals

December 19, 2021 / 8:56 AM
Sharjah24 – AFP: Prime Minister Jean Castex announces remuneration of overtime in hospitals will be "multiplied by two" from next Monday as he presented new measures to fight against Covid.
Commenting on this, Jean Castex, French Prime Minister pointed out, "I understand the frustration of having to limit ourselves at these festive times, but they are indispensable. And we owe them to our carers. For almost two years they have been fighting the virus, these successive waves and this feeling of a never-ending battle. We owe them a lot. First of all, we owe them our gratitude for their commitment during the holidays, as they will continue to be on duty without respite. In this respect, the remuneration of overtime in hospitals will be doubled as of next Monday. And we have asked the doctors to mobilise to ensure the permanence of care during this period. Measures will also be deployed for our emergency services. But what our carers expect from us is that we be careful and, above all, that we vaccinate ourselves."
