Unpaid security guards disrupt Steve Biko hospital
27 November 2017
I am concerned that unpaid security guards barricaded the entrances to the Steve Biko Hospital this morning with rocks, burning tyres and rubble.
The guards say that they have not been paid for three months.
This is the second hospital to be disrupted because the private security company has not been paid by the Gauteng Health Department.
Last month the Thelle Mogoerane Hospital in Vosloorus had to stop admitting patients for a number of days because of action by unpaid security guards.
