Health frontliners to get one-off payment from March 1
SERDANG: Frontline healthcare staff will receive a one-off payment of RM500 beginning on March 1, health minister Dr Adham Baba said today.
“This one-off assistance is in addition to the Covid-19 special allowance of RM600 per month for frontliners, which has been paid since March last year.
“This assistance is for frontline staff directly involved in handling duties related to Covid-19,” he said after visiting University Putra Malaysia’s teaching hospital, here today.
The one-off payment was announced by the prime minister on Jan 18 among measures contained in the Permai stimulus and relief package.
Adham said the UPM teaching hospital has been selected as one of the vaccination centres for the Covid-19 immunisation programme, which will begin on Feb 26.
Seven staff members comprising medical officers and nurses, would be stationed at each vaccine injection facility, and it is expected that every day 210 recipients of the vaccine will be injected, he added. - FMT
