The Ministry of Health is actively addressing outstanding claims for health workers, highlighting its commitment to compensating staff for their dedicated service. So far, the Ministry has disbursed $5.9 million to established staff and government wage earners as payment for overtime worked during the initial five months of the current financial year.
As part of its effort to ensure accurate disbursement, the Ministry is currently gathering and verifying additional claims from all cost centers. This meticulous process is designed to confirm that payments are both precise and directed to eligible personnel. Following the recent Pay 26 inputting cycle, officials have announced that the remaining overtime payments are set to be issued during the first and second pay periods of 2026.
The Ministry of Health expressed appreciation for the hard work and dedication of healthcare personnel, especially during periods of intense demand. Officials have also thanked the staff for their understanding and patience throughout the process, reaffirming the Ministry’s commitment to ensuring that all eligible workers receive the compensation they deserve. This ongoing effort represents a positive step towards recognizing and valuing the contributions of health workers in the community.
