The Moroccan Health Professionals Union has announced its expansion into the public health sector. This move was made during its founding conference held in Rabat, attended by representatives from various regions of the country and several working professionals in the sector. The conference resulted in the approval of the union's internal law for the public health sector and the election of a management office.
The union's expansion is linked to the transformations in the national health system, particularly with the creation of territorial health groups in different regions of the country. This development has led the union to open up to human resources working in the public sector and benefit from its experience in defending health professionals. The union has accumulated six years of experience in defending professionals in the health sector.
The union's president, Dr. Mohamed Aerioua, emphasized that the experience gained in defending professionals in the health sector constitutes a foundation for expanding its work into the public sector. The union has committed to defending the rights of public health workers and their gains, and to work towards improving their financial situation and working conditions.
The union highlighted the importance of training and professional development in improving the performance of human resources. It also mentioned that partnerships with several national universities, colleges, and institutes will be made available to public sector professionals to support their training and enhance their professional capacities.
The union called on the relevant authorities to engage in a serious and responsible social dialogue regarding the situation of human resources. It considers that improving the working conditions of sector workers is a fundamental approach to upgrading the health system. The union also announced its commitment to providing mechanisms for coordination and cooperation between the public and private sectors.
The union's expansion into the public health sector aims to improve the working conditions of health professionals and enhance the quality of health services. The union's president, Dr. Aerioua, was elected as the head of the union, and Said Zibout was chosen as the general secretary. The union's management office was also elected during the conference.
The union's move to expand into the public health sector is expected to have a positive impact on the health system in Morocco. The union's commitment to defending the rights of public health workers and improving their working conditions is seen as a step towards upgrading the health system. The union's partnerships with national universities and institutes will also support the training and development of public sector professionals.
