HSE And IMO Resume Working Hours Talks
Talks have resumed this morning between the Health Service Executive and the Irish Medical Organisation over the working hours of non-consultant hospital doctors.
The organisations are meeting at the Labour Relations Commission in an attempt to resolve the ongoing dispute over working hours.
Some 3,000 junior doctors took to the picket lines last week in a one-day protest over long working hours, which the IMO says exceed European Working Time limits.
