Resident doctors in England have put a planned four-day strike on hold after receiving a new offer from the government. This proposal will now be put to a vote among the doctors' union members.

英格蘭的住院醫生在收到政府的新方案後，決定暫停原定四天的罷工。此提案現在將交由醫生工會的會員投票決定。

The decision to stop the walkout, which was planned for June 15 to June 19, prevents the sixteenth round of strikes since 2023. This happened after the government sent a last-minute proposal. The offer includes a 6.6% average salary increase by April 2027 and extends standard 2016 contract terms to all locally employed doctors. The British Medical Association (BMA) stated that this offer addresses three main concerns: pay, job security, and career progression.

決定停止原定於 6 月 15 日至 6 月 19 日的罷工，避免了自 2023 年以來第 16 輪罷工。這是由於政府在最後一刻提交了提案。該方案包括在 2027 年 4 月前平均加薪 6.6%，並將 2016 年的標準合約條款擴展至所有本地聘用的醫生。英國醫學會 (BMA) 表示，此方案解決了三個主要問題：薪資、工作保障及職涯發展。

However, there are different views on whether this is financially sustainable. Health Secretary James Murray argued that the strikes were unnecessary and emphasized that the government cannot afford more pay rises this year, noting that pay has already increased by 28.9% over the last three years. In contrast, the BMA claims that real wages have actually dropped by about 20% since 2008 due to inflation. Dr. Jack Fletcher, a BMA representative, mentioned that although the timing of the offer was not ideal, the union is still open to negotiations. If the members reject the offer in the vote, the BMA has warned that more strikes could start next month.

然而，關於這是否在財務上具有可持續性，各方看法不一。衛生大臣 James Murray 主張罷工是不必要的，並強調政府今年無法承擔更多加薪，指出過去三年薪資已增長 28.9%。相反，BMA 聲稱由於通貨膨脹，實質工資自 2008 年以來實際上下降了約 20%。BMA 代表 Jack Fletcher 博士提到，雖然提案的時間點並不理想，但工會仍對協商持開放態度。如果會員在投票中拒絕該方案，BMA 警告下個月可能會再次啟動罷工。

For now, the risk of hospital service disruptions has been reduced, while the medical community waits for the results of the membership vote.

目前而言，醫院服務中斷的風險已降低，醫療界正等待會員投票的結果。
