PeaceHealth ULP Settlement Agreement
Posted Apr 3, 2026
Earlier this week, PeaceHealth agreed to settle an NLRB charge WSNA filed over their repeated threats to revoke health insurance from striking workers.
As a condition of the settlement, PeaceHealth must post an official signed notice in every facility listing workers' rights under the National Labor Relations Act and stating that they will not threaten workers' health insurance benefits if they engage in union activity, including striking.
“Every facility” means these postings should go not just in the hospitals or union facilities. Every worker systemwide should be able to find one at their main worksite.
The postings could go up any time between now and April 15 and must stay up for at least sixty days without being obscured, defaced, or hidden.
Please let your WSNA rep know if either you don't see the postings in your facility by April 15, or if the posting doesn't stay up unobscured for the full 60-day period.
In the coming weeks, we'll be sharing more details on this win, including the behind-the-scenes work WSNA members put in to help the NLRB's staff build their case, and what this means for PeaceHealth workers systemwide. In the meantime, thank you for your help holding management accountable on behalf of your coworkers across PeaceHealth.

Document unsafe conditions
If you find yourself in a situation that you believe creates unsafe conditions for patients or for you, you should complete a Staffing Complaint / ADO Form as soon as possible.
By completing the form, you will help make the problem known to management, creating an opportunity for the problem to be addressed. Additionally, you will be documenting the facts, which may be helpful to you later if there is a negative outcome.
WSNA also uses your ADO forms to track the problems occurring in your facility. When you and your coworkers take the important step of filling out an ADO form, you are helping to identify whether there is a pattern of unsafe conditions for you or your patients at your facilities. This information is used by your conference committee, staffing committee, and WSNA labor staff to improve your working conditions.
Representation rights
As a union member, you have the right to have a representative present in any meetings with management that could potentially lead to disciplinary action against you.
If called into a meeting with management, read the following to management when the meeting begins:
If this discussion could in any way lead to my being disciplined or terminated, I respectfully request that my union representative be present at this meeting. Without representation present, I choose not to participate in this discussion.
Find out more about this crucial right and how to exercise it to ensure your fair treatment and protection.
