We have heard your concerns related to the true-up process and we are actively working to mitigate those concerns.

We have initiated a cease and desist as well as a demand to bargain so we can take these concerns directly to the table. We do not agree that the Employer should be deducting any wages from nurses’ paychecks.

Washington state law limits employers’ ability to recover alleged overpayments by deducting money from employees’ paychecks without their consent. We are reviewing MultiCare’s repayment demand and state law requirements carefully.

We will take appropriate actions to protect our members’ rights under the contract and state and federal laws.

We will keep you informed about our decisions and any actions we take.

Please continue to send your questions and concerns to your WSNA Nurse Rep:

Tacoma General- Brenda Balogh bbalogh@wsna.org
