Description
The hospital in Lucenec announced the dismissal of 50 employees, of which most are nurses. Dismissals will take place until the end of 2012.
The redundancies are attributed to the lack of financial resources, which are needed for an increase of minimum salaries for nurses and midwives as requested by the government in 2011.
