Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Hospital Services: Discussion (Resumed)

9:00 am

Ms Susan Clyne:

The SCHDs have longer hours. They have much more responsibility and pressure. The SCHDs are entitled to get overtime but they are not paid for it. The system actively discriminates against them and stops them from claiming even their contractual entitlements.
