Committee of Supply 2022 debate, Day 6: Leon Perera on working conditions for junior doctors
Reduce the guideline on working hours per week for junior doctors from 80 to 70. Ensure full compliance with 10-hour intervals between duty periods and after in-house calls. Shorten the time spent handing over and on peripheral duties. MP Leon Perera made these calls in Parliament on Wednesday (Mar 9), saying the changes will mitigate burnout, which could impact patient care and lead to doctors quitting.
