The Trade Union of Residents and Specialists would like to achieve better wages and more transparency in the health care sector even at the cost of demonstrations or strikes. “It is also the interest of patients to be able to understand the operation of hospitals and to enjoy safety even if they do not pay parasolvency (gratitude money) - says Tamás Dénes, president of the new union. If they cannot make themselves heard, the first action of the new union will be the refusal of voluntary overtime.
