Mullingar Regional Hospital is one of 15 facilities around the country which will be impacted by the walkout, following a similar move yesterday.
Staff say it makes no sense to stop hiring people as the health service enters a busy mid-winter period.
Eddie Walsh from Fórsa says staff are calling on HSE bosses to end the freeze:
