The county government moved to court after negotiations with the medics’ unions failed.
The medics were protesting over their promotion arrears and non-payment of casual workers.
Medics in Taita Taveta have called off their week-long strike that paralysed health services in the county.
On Friday, the Employment and Labour Relations Court suspended the strike and ordered the health workers to return to work pending hearing and determination of the case filed by the county government.
