<\/a>Minimum wage
\nThe panel, set up by the Central government on the apex court\u2019s direction, had recommended a minimum wage of \u20b920,000 for nurses working in establishments with less than 50 beds.<\/p>\nIt had also suggested that their working conditions, like leave, working hours, medical facilities, transportation & accommodation, should be on par with the nurses working in government hospitals.<\/p>\n
Delhi government\u2019s additional standing counsel Sanjoy Ghose said that in June last year, all the private hospitals & nursing homes in the national capital were directed to comply with the panel\u2019s recommendations.<\/p>\n
However, the Delhi government\u2019s order was challenged by several private hospitals & associations representing them, who contended that paying the enhanced wages to the nurses would make their business \u201cunviable\u201d.<\/p>\n
Without consultation
\nThe private hospitals had told the Bench that the Delhi government took the decision in this regard without consulting them.<\/p>\n
The Bench observed that nothing much was required to be done except implement the apex court\u2019s direction & the committee\u2019s recommendations.<\/p>\n
It then directed the Delhi government to do so \u201cin accordance with law & policy as early as possible & practicable\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
