The WSNA negotiation team wants to meet with all WSNA St Clare nurses before they meet with management again.

Negotiations have been dreadfully slow. Our team has been to seven negotiation sessions fighting hard to get a good contract. It has become clear we need to turn up the heat.

Our contract is expired. That means we can take any action we choose to get a contract St Clare nurses deserve.

We are holding local unit meetings to talk about where we are at, what you want, and what you are willing to do. Please attend one of the following meetings and encourage your colleagues to come too:

Date: July 9, 2019

Time: 4:30 – 5:30 p.m. and 8 – 9 p.m.

Place: Holiday Inn Express

11751 Pacific Hwy SW,

Lakewood, WA 98499

Now is when it is important to have a structure of Unit Reps to help with negotiations and communication. Our goal is to have at least one Unit Rep on every unit and every shift. Please contact your Local Unit Officers or Nurse Rep if you are interested or would like more information.

Together we are strong, together we win!

In Solidarity,

Your Negotiating Team: Kimberly Russell, Tony Endrizzi, Clairissa Korrell, Jocelyn Rogers, Patrick Williams, Tessa Zuidhoff
