Junior doctors in Northern Ireland are starting a second round of industrial action due to pay issues, including a 48-hour strike where they will withdraw their labor from hospitals and GP surgeries. This follows a previous walk-out on March 6, after members of the British Medical Association’s junior doctors committee voted overwhelmingly in favor of strike action. Junior doctors in Northern Ireland range from newly qualified doctors earning less than £13 per hour to experienced surgeons earning £30 per hour. The action is to address concerns over pay disparities and working conditions in the healthcare sector.
