Umphakathi ungase ucabange kanjalo, njengoba isenzo sesiteleka se-NHS singase sibuyisele emuva
| Ngu Richard Ahern - Abahlengikazi balungiselela ukwenza isiteleka esikhulu kunazo zonke okwamanje ngemuva kokwenqatshwa okushaqisayo kwesiphakamiso sikahulumeni - isiphakamiso esasekelwa abaholi bezinyunyana.
Ngemuva kwezinyanga zesiteleka sabasebenzi be-NHS, umphakathi waseBrithani wagubha lapho izinyunyana zenza isivumelwano nohulumeni ngoMashi. Ngaphandle kwalokho, ngoLwesihlanu, iRoyal College of Nursing (RCN) imemezele imiphumela yokuvota, okubone iningi elincane (54%) lamalungu abo livota liphikisana nesiphakamiso sikahulumeni. Umphumela omangazayo ushayisane nezincomo zabaholi abaningi bezinyunyana kanye nabasebenzi abaningi.
Sekukonke abahlengikazi abaningi bebefuna isivumelwano sokuhola…
Iningi lamalungu e-Unison, inyunyana enkulu yezempilo e-United Kingdom, lisekele isivumelwano esinikeza abasebenzi ukukhushulwa kwamaholo ngo-5% ngo-2023-24 kanye nebhonasi ephuma kanye elingana no-2% womholo wangonyaka odlule. Nokho, amalungu e-RCN awazange avumelane nozakwabo kwezinye izinyunyana.
Kuya ngokuya kuba kubi…
Ngalezi zindaba ezidumazayo, isenzo sesiteleka sibuya nomkhwezeli. Abahlengikazi abanqabile ukukhokhelwa balungiselela ukungenela isiteleka esikhulu kunazo zonke kuze kube manje esingase sihlanganiswe nodokotela abancane ukuze bethule uhulumeni isiteleka.
Odokotela abancane, abasenkontilekeni ehlukene yokuhola futhi ngaleyo ndlela bengafakwanga esicelweni senyanga edlule, bebelokhu bedlala Izimpi becela "ukubuyiselwa kwenkokhelo" ukuze babuyisele imali yabo ekulinganeni kuka-2008.
Ngokuhlanganisa ndawonye, abasebenzi bazothemba ukuthi uhulumeni uzobhekana nengcindezi - ngeshwa, abaningi besaba ukuthi ukunyakaza okunjalo kuzokhubaza i-NHS futhi, ekugcineni, nokunakekelwa kwesiguli.
I-RCN isivele ihlele uhambo lwamahora angama-48 ngeholidi lasebhange likaMeyi (30 Ephreli kuya ku-02 Meyi) futhi yaxwayisa ngokuthi izinsizakalo zokunakekelwa okubucayi kanye nabagula kakhulu ngeke ziqashwe ngezinsuku zesiteleka okokuqala ngqa.
Uhulumeni uchaze ukwenqatshwa “njengokudumaza kakhulu,” kodwa i-Unison ithe izobe inxusa ongqongqoshe ukuthi basebenzise isiphakamiso sokuhola amalungu ezinye izinyunyana avotele “yebo” naphezu kwevoti le-RCN. UChancellor uJeremy Hunt unxuse izinyunyana ezisavota ukuthi zamukele isiphakamiso “esilungele iziguli futhi esilungele abasebenzi.”
Iningi Amalungu e-Unison avotele ngesivumelwano eceleni kwedlanzana elincane (46%) lamalungu e-RCN - abangazizwa bephoqeleka ukuthi baphume.
Amalungu e-RCN afunani?
Unobhala-jikelele we-RCN, uPat Cullen, uvele waphawula ukuthi uhulumeni "udinga ukukhulisa lokho osekunikeziwe ..."
U-Unison ube nombono omuhle, lapho okhulumela u-Sarah Gorton ethi, "Kusobala ukuthi abasebenzi bezempilo bebezofuna okwengeziwe, kodwa lokhu bekungcono kakhulu okungafinyelelwa ngezingxoxo."
Ekugcineni, umphakathi uzokhokha inani…
Ivoti le-RCN lingase lithole ukugxekwa ngumphakathi, obulokhu uhlushwa imiphumela yezinyanga zokuphazamiseka kweziteleka emikhakheni yonkana.
NgoJanuwari, sibike jikelele ukwesekwa kwezinyunyana futhi izisebenzi ezitelekile zazincipha, nokugxuma okukhulu kubantu bethi abasebenzi “bangashaya kalula.”
Nokho, naphezu kwemiphumela yokunakekelwa kwesiguli, abahlengikazi nabasebenzi bama-ambulensi baqhubeka nokujabulela ukwesekwa okuqinile okuvela emphakathini. I-Ipsos isanda kubikwa (Ngo-Ephreli) ukuthi iningi (60%) lalabo ababuzwayo basavuma labo basebenzi be-NHS abatelekile. Odokotela abancane babona ukwesekwa okuncane kancane, ngaphezudlwana kwesigamu (54%) sabantu baseBrithani ababasekelayo.
Sekukonke, kuzo zonke izinyunyana ze-NHS, kufanele siqaphele ukuthi iningi labasebenzi be-NHS basekela isiphakamiso sikahulumeni somholo - ngakho-ke, idlanzana labahlengikazi kuphela elishayela isenzo sesiteleka esizayo.
Eceleni kwenqwaba yabahlengikazi ngokungangabazeki abazozizwa benengcindezi yokuteleka bengathandi, umbono womphakathi ngeziteleka ungase ube muncu njengoba abahlengikazi abatelekile bethathwa njengabanobugovu.
