I know nurses did not get paid during their internship until the last year. That was the case but now there is a payment in place. Do the junior doctors get paid or is it the same system as the one for nurses? That is one question I would have but as an employer, I know that if anyone works in a place where you have to have PPE gear, for example, the contractor provides it. If it is a case that you are travelling to different places, the employer pays for it. Why can the HSE not do the same for trainees?
