News24 reports that the doors at the Gale Street Medico-Legal Mortuary in Durban have reopened following a two-day strike, the KwaZulu-Natal health department said on Wednesday.
Health MEC Sibongiseni Dhlomo met with staff on Wednesday morning after they downed tools, complaining about a manager who had been suspended and then resumed her duties on 17 October. The staff members also advised Dhlomo about other grievances, including issues of overtime and complaints about inadequate supply of protective clothing. Dhlomo committed to resolving the matter urgently, as it affected the staff morale at the mortuary. The manager in question has been instructed to return to work after receiving an indication to do so.
