An ophthalmologist from Klin was fired after refusing to work more for the same salary

An ophthalmologist from Klin said that she was fired from a local hospital after she refused to work more for the same salary. The Russian woman’s story is reported by Baza.

She said that the hospital management offered her new working conditions, according to which she had to see patients 39 hours a week instead of 33, as was the case before. The reception time was reduced to 11 minutes. According to Baza’s interlocutor, such changes would mean that she would have to accept 50 people per day instead of 35. The wages would remain the same.

The clinic's management also stated that if she refused, the employee would be transferred to the position of a pediatric ophthalmologist, front desk operator or cleaner, which did not correspond to her qualifications. After the doctor once again did not agree to the proposed conditions, she was informed of the termination of the employment contract.

The chief doctor of the Klin hospital refused to comment on the situation.
