Hospital physicians will start tomorrow an on-the-job protest against Government proposals for their working conditions. The protest will be in the form of performing their duties strictly according to hospital rules, a procedure which usually produces complications in an institution’s operations.
The Israel Medical Association, supporting the protest, charged that the hospital doctors were overburdened since a large number of Israeli physicians leave hospital positions because of low pay, “intolerable” working conditions and lack of arrangements for specialization.
