Nurses Demand Urgent Action on Compensation Issues
On May 31, 2026, the university office representing the independent union of nurses and health technicians at Hassan II University Hospital in Fes called for immediate action regarding the long-standing issue of compensation for on-call and mandatory duties. The union emphasized that this matter has been unresolved for more than two years, highlighting its critical importance to the nursing staff and health technicians involved. The office has engaged in numerous discussions with the hospital administration, including the director and human resources officials, to stress the necessity of creating fair and motivating compensation structures similar to those implemented in other regions.
Urgent Resolution Needed for Fair Compensation
The union office reiterated the urgency of concluding this compensation project promptly. Previously, the hospital administration had indicated, in a signed agreement with the union, that sufficient financial resources were available for these compensations. The only obstacle cited at that time was the lack of legal backing. However, recent amendments to the regulations governing these compensations have eliminated this justification, prompting the university office to call for the swift completion of administrative procedures. This would ensure that the compensation package meets the expectations of the nurses and health technicians, who have been working under stressful and demanding conditions, often during nights, weekends, and holidays, to maintain essential healthcare services.
The nurses and health technicians are eagerly awaiting the resolution of this matter, hoping for a fair settlement that recognizes their significant sacrifices and contributions within the hospital's various departments. The university office insists on the need for urgent intervention to bring this issue to fruition and to expedite the processing of all related matters, ensuring that this professional group is finally treated justly after years of neglect.
