AMMAN — Jordan Nurses and Midwives Association President Mohammad Hatamleh said Saturday that he will stage a sit-in near the Prime Ministry on Monday to demand overtime and technical allowances for nurses working at public sector hospitals.
Hatamleh said he will start the sit-in at noon and continue for two hours every day until the government agrees to the nurses’ demands.
His “solo protest” comes to avoid a future strike that nurses might consider, which would disrupt work at public hospitals.
