On Thursday, February 20, dozens of ambulance owners organized a protest over the people in charge of the economic capital.
The protest came in conjunction with the opening session of the Public Utilities, Property and Services Committee in the City Council of Casablanca to debate on the regulation guide specified for the legal and regulatory requirements for the management of transport vehicles for the sick and wounded.
Slogans were raised in front of the headquarters of the Casablanca City Council, using ambulance sirens, in an expression of their protest against the regulation guide that was supposed to be discussed by the aforementioned committee on Friday, before moving it to ratification in a second session session next week.
The professionals expressed their dissatisfaction and anger at the fact that the Casablanca Council did not involve them in the preparation of these guides, not to mention that it set impossible conditions for some of them, which would cause their displacement, given that they are inable to meet the conditions stipulated in it.
Mohamed Khenter, the national secretary of the National Syndicate of Ambulances Sector professionals, who is affiliated with the General Union of Workers in Morocco, confirmed in a statement to “Hespress” website, that “the professionals refuse to be excluded, and if the situation continues as it is, we will be escalating our protest.”
The same spokesman pointed out that “people working in this sector used to enjoy transportation licenses, however, now such privilege was cut”.
Khenter also noted that when it comes to the regulation guideline, they do not oppose as much only if they involve them in its formulation”.
