Although we have one bargaining session left this month – scheduled for 1/28/15 – it doesn’t seem our employer is serious about stopping unilaterally imposed changes to our working conditions or about getting a contract done that protects our licenses and our jobs.  Because of this, we were forced to file ULPs and to ask you to authorize a ULP strike.  We had the highest turnout of any Union event at PSJMC, and 94% of voting RNs said YES over the course of 3 days!

If management doesn’t rescind the unilateral changes, continues to make changes without bargaining over them, and continues to have us work out of ratio, we will be ready to act.  We will be in communication soon with dates for a multi-day strike if it becomes necessary.

In the meantime, thanks for all your support, your emails and your phone calls.  We are getting the word out quickly about new developments and will continue do so with your continued involvement.

Your Bargaining Team,

Tracy Andrews, 4N - Kevin Macvane, Short Stay - Joyce Powell, ER - Brenda Blanco, 5N - Cindy Triola -ICU
