St. Michael Medical Center News and Updates
The Employer made only a minimal movement on wages. Even more concerning, they REJECTED EVERY premium pay increase proposed by the Union. This rejection was so extreme that they even rejected basic cleanup language on certification pay that did not include any substantive change and would not have created any additional cost for the Employer.
The Employer returned in the afternoon with only a partial response to our comprehensive proposal and did not yet provide a full economic response. Our Bargaining Team spent the rest of the day reviewing their proposals, pushing back where needed, and continuing to focus the conversation on the issues that matter most to members: staffing, safety, recruitment and retention, and fair wages and benefits.
