Contract update

WSNA is happy to announce a 1‑year contract with Peace­Health corpo­rate. In this unprece­dented year, Peace­Health has agreed to honor the contract as it is, without any changes for the period of a year, and has agreed to a 3% wage increase for this contract term.

This decision allows for finan­cial security for the nurses while preserving the employ­ment benefits of the current contract and allows for hospital recovery from the pandemic prior to negoti­ating the contents of the entire contract. We plan for negoti­a­tions on the full contract to take place in the coming year.

Please extend a huge thank you to your WSNA Officers when you see them! PeaceHealth St. John is blessed to have a team of dedicated profes­sionals who love their co-workers and their hospital and want only the best for their teams.
