Hospital Calderón Guardia workers protest salary delays

Workers from Hospital Calderón Guardia held a protest in front of the Caja Costarricense de Seguro Social (CCSS) central offices in San José to demand the immediate payment of overdue wages.

Demonstrators paused their duties to voice grievances regarding salary delays that reportedly span several fortnights or even months. Protesters carried signs demanding dignity and timely compensation, asserting that receiving a salary is a right rather than a favor. The movement seeks urgent solutions from the CCSS to resolve these financial discrepancies affecting various employees.
