Informational

Contracted healthcare trainees employed at medical institutions plan to begin an indefinite strike across North Macedonia on April 15. The purpose of the work stoppage is to demand higher salaries and improved working conditions. Organizers assert the strike will continue until their demands are met.

Medical service disruptions are likely nationwide during the strike period. Picket protests are possible at medical institutions; heightened security and localized transport disruptions are possible near any demonstrations that may materialize.
