After several months of failed negotiations with the government, healthcare workers have finally resolved to hold nation-wide sit in beginning Monday, June 10 2024, until government resolves their grievances.

The strike follows government's perceived lack of commitment to resolve their grievances which include demands to increase their allowances and to improve working conditions.

Meanwhile, Paum president Solomon Chomba and his Nonm counterpart, Shouts Simeza, have written hospital directors for central hospitals, directors of health and social services for district hospitals and hospital directors for Christian Health Association of Malawi on the strike. "As you may be aware, we are currently unable to indicate the duration of the sit-in as it is dependent on the response and action by the government."
