SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, May 21. (EUROPE PRESS) –
The President of the Canary Islands, Ángel Víctor Torres, has assumed this Sunday the commitments of the Canary Islands Health Service (SCS) with the unions on remuneration capacities and the improvement of primary care and emergencies.
In statements to the media, he recalled that an agreement signed by all the unions has been reached, including the calling union, “which, however, has maintained the strike.”
“Other unions have been very tough,” he observed, since they do not understand why a strike is being maintained after having signed a unanimous agreement and just seven days before an election.
For this reason, Torres wanted to convey to public opinion that the Government of the Canary Islands fulfills its commitments and therefore the commitments that have been signed by the SCS and the Government of the Canary Islands are also assumed by him as president.
Here, he explained that this means that with regard to remuneration for the entire health sector, there is a working group with dates that will even meet again this week.
“And on July 19 -he continued– we will already have what those remuneration capacities are, how it should be ordered in the entire Health sector. We are going to dimension it and see its impact to undertake it in the year 2023 and in the years following”.
Meanwhile, regarding primary care and emergencies, Torres similarly assumed the commitment of that agreement to improve primary care and provide human resources that are precise and necessary in emergencies. “I do it publicly and I think I can’t make it clearer,” he concluded.
