The Moroccan government council approved, this Thursday, December 9, the inclusion of veterinarians and cartographer-topographer engineers into the public social security system.
The first draft decree concerns the implementation of basic compulsory health insurance (AMO), while the second and third concern the application of the two laws, with regard to veterinarians and cartographer-topographer engineers.
The grand government’s plan to implement universal health care is progressing, with the gradual inclusion of various professions into the list of eligibility.
Despite the generalization of universal health care and social security receiving mass approval from Moroccans, some sector professionals are criticizing the details of the plan, with the union of private-sector doctors calling for a boycott of the National Social Security Fund (CNSS).
Contribution rates are, according to the unions, extremely high, which is prompting them to organize a general strike this January 20, unless the government agrees to review the law framing their inclusion.
Meanwhile, many artisans and informal sector professionals have reacted favorably to the generalization of CNSS coverage, and are welcoming the decision.
