Support Your Bargaining Committee With a PTO Donation
Our bargaining team spent all 8 days of negotiations and countless hours on preparation, keeping all UG nurses informed about what was happening at the table and what we all needed to do to show our solidarity. Now, we can show our appreciation for their hard work that led to a great contract by donating PTO to them.
If you have questions about the vote, your ballot, or the tentative agreement, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Labor Negotiator Scott Clifthorne: [email protected].
