“125 Karolinska doctors in protest”
“the 125 doctors in protest against the union at the Karolinska – after evidence of harassment against the jewish doctors at the hospital. “
“And accusing fackordförande to downplay the situation. “
“– It is substandard and unacceptable, ” says chief physician Björn Fischler, who authored a list of demands.”
“the Tray at the Karolinska has previously received sharp criticism for having ignored the alarms about the alleged harassment and anti-semitism at one of the country’s most prestigious clinics. “
“Now has 125 physicians at the Karolinska university Hospital have signed a letter addressed to the Swedish medical association, Stockholms läkarförening and Karolinskas läkarförening.”
“Where is accused, among other Yvonne Dellmark, president of the chambers of physicians at the Karolinska, in order to ”downplay” the situation.”
“”Yvonne Dellmarks argument to refrain from engaging in the individual harassed a colleague’s case is in itself wrong and deeply disturbing. The type of narrow-minded and misdirected formalism at risk of harm both to the individual affected members as the group as a whole,” it says in the letter that Aftonbladet had to take part of. “
“They also argue that the slot is not followed, the work environment act when they have chosen to refrain from engaging in the individual harassed a colleague’s case, and writes:”
“”moreover, We would argue that Yvonne Dellmark not being truthful when she says that she has not been contacted by the member or known to the situation at the clinic in question. Both Karolinskas läkarförening and Stockholms läkarförening has been involved in the case. From the union representatives, however, decided to wave it off as general problems of health and safety and personkonflikter. Several trade union representatives have, through their actions, demonstrated an embarrassing low level of knowledge about discrimination in general and antisemitism in particular”. “
“over one hundred doctors now places more stringent requirements. “
“We are now deeply disappointed and concerned about the medical association actions and, therefore, requires:”
” the appointment of an independent investigation that identifies Karolinskas and Stockholm läkarförenings action in the matter.”
“– the formulation of a policy for how Karolinskas and Stockholms Läkarförening in the future in a more efficient way to handle discrimination issues”
“– the formulation of a policy for how the Swedish medical Association and the local associations manage the board of directors and trade union representatives acting in a way that is not in conformity with the medical association ethical rules”
“A lot of mistrust to the tray”
“the chief Physician Björn Fischler is one of those that stand behind the list of duties. The criticism against the union escalated after a meeting at the beginning of december, where it was discussed how Karolinskas läkarförening have acted according to Aftonbladet’s review. “
“We now hope that the tray at all levels to go from incomprehension and passivity-committal phrases into practical action, that is to say, make sure to take the incident seriously, take a stand for the harassed member, and to press the hospital management to ensure a prompt and adequate investigation,” says Björn Fischler.”
“Yvonne Dellmark also get criticism for the lack of action after a member of the board sought negative information about the victim is jewish, the doctor, and hung out colleagues who supported the affected. “
“”President of the Karolinska Läkarförenings board of directors has not taken a distance from this, which is noteworthy,” it says in the letter.”
“Aftonbladet have searched for Heidi Stensmyren, president of the Swedish medical association, but were not able to comment on the letter because she is on vacation. Yvonne Dellmark refers to the fact that medical will comment on the requirements and the criticism after the weekend. “
“After that Aftonbladet has published a series of testimonies and the details of the alleged harassment and anti-semitism on one of the Karolinskas tiled is an ongoing investigation at the hospital of the situation, which is expected to drive clear in the beginning of 2019. “
