Gambia: Medical Research Council Unit workers to strike nationwide Dec. 16-18

Medical Research Council Unit workers in Gambia to strike nationwide Dec. 16-18. Medical service disruptions likely in Fajara and Keneba.

Warning

Members of the Medical Research Council Unit (MRCG) in Gambia are striking nationwide from Dec. 16-18. Union leaders warned that public clinical services in Fajara and Keneba will be suspended during the strike. The union claims MRCG management has failed to address issues over working conditions and rights.

Medical service disruptions are likely at MRCG health facilities or facilities that utilize MRCG services. Further strikes are possible over the coming weeks.

Confirm all appointments at MRCG medical facilities for the duration of the strike.
