Ninety-seven cleaning service staff of the CWM hospital have been made redundant.

This has been confirmed by the Ministry of Health Spokesperson, Peni Namotu who said a new Health Housekeeping Services Co-operative has come on board to provide cleaning services at the CWM.

Namotu said while some employers have joined the new housekeeping company, all 97 staff have been given redundancy packages as part of the outsourcing.

A memorandum of agreement was signed between Ministry of Health and the cleaning services company last week.
