Contract Ratified!

We are excited to announce that the nurses at Astria Sunnyside Hospital have voted to ratify our new WSNA contract!  🎉

This agreement represents significant progress on wages, staffing, and working conditions thanks to the strength, unity, and dedication of every nurse who stood together throughout the bargaining process.

💡 What’s Next

  • Implementation: The new contract goes into effect immediately upon ratification.
  • Wage Increases and Bonus: The new wage scale and initial ratification bonus will appear on paychecks starting with the first full pay period after ratification.
  • Contract Access: A full copy of the new contract will be available soon online once finalized by WSNA and Astria.
