Seiyun Hospital Contract Nurses Threaten Mass Resignation Over Unpaid Dues

Contract nurses at Seiyun General Hospital have threatened to proceed with a mass resignation, signed by 183 staff members, if their demands for overdue financial dues and incentives remain unaddressed.

The nursing staff stated in a released statement that the deadline they provided to the hospital administration for resolving the crisis is nearing its midpoint without any tangible progress on the payment issue. They highlighted that this situation has exacerbated the suffering of nursing personnel amidst economic decline and rising living costs.

The statement clarified that the only action taken by the hospital administration since the announcement of the mass resignation on June 7 was the disbursement of overdue financial dues dating back to 2025, which occurred on June 14. They emphasized that this step does not meet current demands and does not represent a fundamental solution to the crisis.

The nursing staff reiterated their commitment to their professional and job rights, urging relevant authorities to intervene promptly and resolve the issue of dues, ensuring their regular disbursement. This, they stressed, is crucial for stabilizing healthcare personnel and maintaining the provision of medical services to citizens.

The statement warned that continued disregard for their demands could lead to the execution of the mass resignation upon the conclusion of the specified deadline on July 7, 2026. They hold the hospital administration fully responsible for any potential deterioration in healthcare services or disruption to workflow in the coming period.
