Tripoli Pay

[ggjoseph]

Dear Sir

Me writing from India, I was offered a job in Tripoli as nurse and was offered Rs 600000 per month(around 12000 Libyan Dinar as the salary per month).

Do they really have that much to offer ?

Hello!

My advice to you (having worked in Lybia at the BMC in Benghazi) is NOT to go there.

The pay offered is way too high with regards to your country of origin. When I write this I'm not despising you, it's just that indian, sri-lankan, philippino, serbian, croatian,moldavian nurses pay rate is lower.

If you really intend to go there, check out VERY carefully the background of the company that's hiring you, how your salary will be paid (sometimes they impose currency exportation limitations), if it will be paid in Indian or in Lybia. Ask them if they have already recruited other indian nurses, where they live, how they traveled there.

The salary offered is really high: as Operation Theatre Department manager (covering OR, Out-Patient, PACU, CSSD) I was paid 12675 LD per month in 2009, that should enable you to make a comparison.

The female nurses that had been hired from the Philipines had had to undergo a "horizontal selection process" as proudly described by the hospital's director himself, same was due for the indian nurses that were to come... At that time the hospital's different kinds of directors were almost all pure and simple pieces of:poop:

The hospital was not receiving patients at that time: so the foreign nurses hired by the hospital weren't paid. Some girls had to sell their body to get money for food.

Furthermore due to the present chaotic conditions prevailing in Lybia life is dangerous, public services work when they can, there's no law anymore and you're very likely to be unable to get the promised salary once you get there.

You'd better try other countries like UK where you'll be considered as a human being and a healthcare professionnal.

However, if you really go to Tripoli, please give us an update on how it is after you spent 2 months there. I would be really glad for you if you prove me wrong.
