"Let the prosecutor's office check the salaries of managers." Verkh-Tula ambulance paramedics complained about a sharp pay cut.
Management responded: paramedics are not fulfilling their call plan
Ambulance workers in a village near Novosibirsk recorded video imageschenie to the Chairman of the Investigative Committee Alexander BastrykinThey complained about a salary cut of approximately 30% and asked for an investigation into the cause.
Feldsher Vladimir Tsapurin A year ago I received 53 thousand rubles for one job, now I received 38 thousand rubles.
"Comparing our pay slips to last year, our salaries have dropped by about 20 to 1,5 rubles. The money I earned last year at 1,25 times the normal rate, I now have to work more than 15 times the normal rate. So, management is forcing us to work more but still get the same pay.", he explained.
The employees tried to get a response from management, but, according to Tsapurin, they were told that the doctors were doing a poor job and were not fulfilling their plans.
The Novosibirsk District Hospital initially declined to comment to an NGS.RU correspondent, but sent a written response the following day.
"When calculating wages, the volume of work performed is also taken into account. Since wages are not fixed and directly depend on the intensity of work, it is incorrect to talk about a wage reduction in this case.", the Central Regional Hospital stated.
It turned out that the district ambulance service has a plan of 6,3 calls per team per day. However, Verkhnetulsky medics only respond to 3,7 calls, as some patients are consulted over the phone, without a team traveling. Telephone consultations are not included in the plan and do not count as a call.
"Let the prosecutor's office check the managers' salaries; they should also fall by 30%," "How can doctors be paid piecework? Who came up with that idea?" "Firefighters should also be paid 12,000 rubles per fire. Will they start creating their own 'bonuses'?" — subscribers were outraged.
