英格蘭的醫生已達成協議，但澳大利亞、北愛爾蘭與加拿大的醫療工作者仍在為加薪而奮鬥。

Medical and nursing professionals in several different countries are taking various actions and negotiating with governments regarding their salaries and working conditions.

數個不同國家的醫療與護理專業人員正採取各種行動，就薪資與工作條件與政府進行協商。

In Victoria, Australia, public hospital doctors are starting a process for legal industrial action after ten months of unsuccessful talks with the state government. The Australian Medical Association Victoria and the Australian Salaried Medical Officers’ Federation are asking for a 30% pay increase over four years, emphasizing problems with burnout and poor parental leave. Their plan includes three steps: public campaigns, refusing unscheduled overtime, and possible strikes, as long as patient safety is protected. Meanwhile, the government asserts that negotiations are still moving forward in good faith.

在澳洲維多利亞州，公立醫院醫生在與州政府進行十個月未獲成功的談判後，開始採取法律工業行動。維多利亞州澳洲醫學會與澳洲薪資醫療人員聯會要求四年內加薪 30%，並強調過勞問題與陪產假不足的問題。他們的計劃包括三個步驟：公眾宣傳、拒絕非計畫性加班，以及在保障患者安全的前提下可能採取罷工。與此同時，政府堅稱談判仍是在誠信基礎上推進中。

In the United Kingdom, the situation varies by region. In England, resident doctors have ended a long dispute after 53% of members accepted a government offer. This deal includes an average 6.6% pay rise by April 2027 and 4,500 new training positions. However, in Northern Ireland, doctors have started striking because they rejected a 3.5% pay increase. They argue that their salaries have dropped in real value over eighteen years. The Northern Ireland Health Minister explained that they cannot offer more money due to budget limits and the risk of causing similar demands across other public services.

在英國，情況因地區而異。在英格蘭，由於 53% 的成員接受了政府的方案，住院醫生結束了一場長期爭議。此協議包括在 2027 年 4 月前平均加薪 6.6%，以及增加 4,500 個新培訓職位。然而，在北愛爾蘭，醫生因拒絕 3.5% 的加薪而開始罷工。他們認為其薪資的實質價值在十八年來有所下降。北愛爾蘭衛生部長解釋，由於預算限制以及擔心引起其他公共服務的類似要求，因此無法提供更多資金。

Similarly, there is tension in Canada. Nurses in British Columbia have announced a 72-hour strike after 67% of their members rejected a proposed agreement. The Nurses’ Bargaining Association claims that health authorities are focusing on short-term costs rather than the long-term health of the workforce, which is currently working beyond its capacity.

同樣地，加拿大也存在緊張局勢。卑詩省的護理人員在 67% 的成員拒絕擬議協議後，宣布將進行 72 小時罷工。護理議價協會聲稱，衛生當局關注的是短期成本，而非勞動力的長期健康，而目前的勞動力已在超出負荷的情況下工作。

While resident doctors in England have reached an agreement with their government, healthcare workers in Victoria, Northern Ireland, and British Columbia are still in active conflict.

雖然英格蘭的住院醫生已與政府達成協議，但維多利亞州、北愛爾蘭與卑詩省的醫療工作者仍處於激烈的衝突中。

Medical and nursing professionals across multiple jurisdictions are engaging in varied industrial actions and negotiations regarding pay and working conditions.

多個司法管轄區的醫療與護理專業人員正針對薪酬與工作條件，採取各種工業行動並進行協商。

In Victoria, Australia, public hospital physicians are initiating a process for protected industrial action following a ten-month stalemate with the state government. The Australian Medical Association Victoria and the Australian Salaried Medical Officers’ Federation seek a 30% salary increase over four years, citing concerns over burnout and inadequate parental leave. The proposed escalation involves a three-tiered strategy: initial public campaigning, the refusal of unscheduled overtime, and potential work stoppages, provided patient safety is maintained. The administration maintains that negotiations are proceeding in good faith.

在澳洲維多利亞州，公立醫院醫師在與州政府僵持十個月後，正啟動受保護的工業行動程序。維多利亞州澳洲醫學會與澳洲領薪醫療人員聯邦尋求在四年內加薪 30%，理由是擔心過勞以及產假不足。擬議的升級方案包含三階段策略：初步的公開宣傳、拒絕非預約加班，以及在確保病人安全的前提下可能採取停工。行政部門則堅持協商正本著誠信進行。

Within the United Kingdom, the landscape of industrial action is fragmented by region. In England, resident doctors have concluded a protracted dispute after 53% of eligible British Medical Association members ratified a government offer. This agreement includes an average 6.6% pay uplift by April 2027, the creation of 4,500 specialty training positions, and the reimbursement of examination fees. Conversely, in Northern Ireland, resident, consultant, and SAS doctors have commenced strike actions. These practitioners rejected a 3.5% pay increase, citing eighteen years of salary erosion and a lack of pay parity compared to other jurisdictions. The Northern Ireland Health Minister attributed the inability to exceed the recommended pay award to budgetary constraints and the potential for systemic repercussions across the public sector.

在英國，工業行動的情況依地區而異。在英格蘭，隨著 53% 的英國醫學會合資格會員批准政府方案，住院醫師結束了一場持久的爭議。該協議包括在 2027 年 4 月前平均調薪 6.6%、設立 4,500 個專科培訓職位，以及報銷考試費用。相反地，在北愛爾蘭，住院醫師、顧問醫師與 SAS 醫師已開始罷工。這些從業人員拒絕了 3.5% 的加薪，理由是薪資已被侵蝕十八年，且與其他司法管轄區相比缺乏薪酬對等。北愛爾蘭衛生大臣將無法超過建議加薪幅度歸因於預算限制以及對公共部門可能產生的系統性影響。

Parallel developments in Canada indicate similar systemic friction. Nurses in British Columbia have issued a 72-hour strike notice following the rejection of a tentative agreement by 67% of the membership. The Nurses’ Bargaining Association contends that current health authorities prioritize short-term staffing expenditures over the long-term sustainability of the workforce, which is currently operating beyond established capacity limits.

加拿大的平行發展亦顯示出類似的系統性摩擦。在卑詩省，由於 67% 的會員拒絕了一項初步協議，護理人員已發出 72 小時罷工通知。護理議價協會主張，目前的衛生當局優先考慮短期人力開支，而非勞動力的長期永續性，而目前的人力運作已超出既定的負荷上限。

While English resident doctors have achieved a rapprochement with their government, healthcare professionals in Victoria, Northern Ireland, and British Columbia remain in active dispute.

雖然英格蘭的住院醫師已與政府達成和解，但維多利亞州、北愛爾蘭與卑詩省的醫療專業人員仍處於激烈的爭議之中。
