A contractor providing services outsourced by the Civil Hospital Hyderabad has not paid his employees for over four months.

All Pakistan Clerks Association (APCA) Sindh General Secretary and Central Joint Secretary of the United Labour Federation, Ashraf Khan Bozai, has appealed the provincial health minister, chief secretary, health secretary, DG NAB, deputy director anti-corruption, and other high-ups to investigate the embezzlement of salaries of daily-wage employees of Civil Hospital Hyderabad, and the non-payment of their wages for four to five months.

Bozai stated that over 1,500 daily-wage workers are employed at the hospital under a contract system, but instead of receiving the government-approved salary of Rs37,000, they are paid Rs10,000 to Rs12,000.

He further mentioned that these workers are facing severe difficulties during the holy month of Ramazan for not getting their rightful wages. The firm responsible for their contracts also holds four other profitable contracts with the hospital, which should also be investigated.

The officials involved in the embezzlement should be terminated from their services.
