At least 4,000 doctors are employed in Kenya’s public healthcare sector. Almost all of them went on strike on March 14 demanding the implementation of a labour agreement signed with the government in 2017.

Collective Bargaining Agreements (CBAs) are realised under the unlimited labour rights enshrined under Article 41 of the Constitution and the Employment and Labour Laws of Kenya.
