Contract workers' corruption in the Free State must be tackled in the premier's state-of-the-province address, Cosatu said on Wednesday.
Free State Cosatu secretary Sam Mashinini said these were some of the key issues that premier Ace Magashule in his speech on Thursday.
He said the province promised to change the employment of contract workers in hospitals and other departments, including security, cleaning and catering.
However, there were only improvements at the Pelonomi Hospital in Bloemfontein and Welkom’s Bongani Hospital.
Mashinini said Magashule must speak against corruption in the province.
All those that were found to have committed corruption should face the full might of the law.
Mashinini said infrastructure development would also go a long way towards employment creation and the eradication of poverty.
The Congress of SA Trade Unions said primary health care centres in the province also needed attention.
These centres were high-volume service areas in communities with few nursing staff to service them.
Earlier, the provincial youth body of the Democratic Alliance said the situation of unemployed youth in the province must get attention.
The DA Youth said it was estimated that more than 45 percent of young people in the Free State were unemployed. - Sapa
