Five house and medical officers believe that the HWCITF may be biased without representation of trainee doctors on the task force that’s probing MOH’s work culture.
Hartal Doktor Kontrak says it will propose to the Healthcare Work Culture Improvement Task Force to create a transparent grievance management system and how to encourage junior doctors to come forward on workplace bullying or sexual harassment.
We must accept that harassment exists in our workspaces. and that it has largely been ignored or ridiculed when brought to the attention of the authorities.
Khairy Jamaluddin says the Healthcare Work Culture Improvement Task Force will seek views from groups representing junior doctors so that HWCITF can produce a balanced and fair report.
Health care leaders have failed to develop a work culture that promotes a safe and quality ambience for training and learning, essential to the delivery of quality health care.
The Healthcare Work Culture Improvement Task Force, chaired by ex-MOSTI sec-gen Siti Hamisah Tapsir, comprises 8 other members, including ex-CIMB human resource head Hamidah Naziadin.
