The EFN has sent today a letter<\/a> to the Slovak authorities in relation to the Act No. 62\/2012 on minimum wage claims of nurses and midwives.<\/p>\n

The EFN has been informed that the Slovakian employers are putting nurses and nursing in a very dangerous position to avoid fulfilling this new law. The European Union institutions \u2013 including the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights \u2013 need to monitor these unethical practices in which nurses are forced to sign amendments to their contracts, or even new contacts under different conditions, in order to circumvent the law.<\/p>\n

Therefore, EFN calls on the Constitutional Court of the Slovak Republic, all individual health care providers and social service facilities and the social dialog partners and competent authorities to take all necessary steps to support and safeguard the legitimate interests of nurses and midwives in the Slovak Republic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
