Negotiation update - Aug. 9 meeting

Our negotiating team met with administration on Aug. 9. We were able to reach a fair amount of tentative agreements regarding layoff and restructure language. Your bargaining team has remained firm in our commitment for competitive wages that would enable the hospital to retain and recruit enough nurses to provide our patients with the care they deserve. While the bargaining team is disappointed with the hospital’s inadequate wage proposal, the team will continue to fight for fair wages and better staffing at our hospital.

In Solidarity!

Your Negotiation Team: Jody Shively, Tanya Gutierrez, Carling Vaux, Clara Bucio, Diane Paulakis, Crystal Kosik
