JOHOR BAHRU, Nov 14 — The Johor State Government hopes the filling of posts at Hospital Pasir Gudang (HPG) can be expedited to ensure sufficient manpower in line with the hospital’s expanding service capacity.
Johor Menteri Besar Datuk Onn Hafiz Ghazi said 1,276 of the 2,271 posts allocated to HPG had been filled as of November 6, or 56 per cent.
He said the fill rate for nursing posts remained low at 40 per cent, while that for medical specialists stood at just 39 per cent.
“The Johor State Government will continue to champion manpower needs and the welfare of healthcare workers to provide the best healthcare services for Bangsa Johor, InsyaAllah,” he said in a Facebook post.
