Some of the striking Juba Teaching Hospital interns have resumed work weeks after they laid down their tools over pay arrears.
Last month, at least 60 health workers reached a deal with the ministry of health to work and be paid in July when the fiscal budget is approved.
However, some of them allegedly violated the deal and went on strike, demanding the ministry to pay them immediately.
They say their working conditions at the hospital are poor for them to continue working.
Patients had been left to the attention of only clinical officers and nurses.
For his part, the Director-General of the state-run hospital, Dr. John Chol, says some of the health workers have reported to work.
“Up to now that problem has not been resolved, they have not come back to work, only few of them. But work will continue of course,” he said.
A health worker receives 2,100 pounds monthly.
