LONDON, Dec 15 (Reuters) - Resident doctors in England voted to reject the latest offer from the government on working conditions, the British Medical Association union said on Monday, confirming that a five-day strike planned for this week would go ahead.
The doctors' union - which represents resident doctors who are qualified practicians making up nearly half of the medical workforce - will stage a walkout from Wednesday as part of a series of strike actions that have taken place earlier this year over pay and working conditions.
"Strikes will go ahead from 17-22 December, after resident doctors in England voted overwhelmingly to reject the latest offer from [the government]," the BMA said on X.
