Rep: Collin Greer
Following months of negotiations between Providence and your union bargaining team, a tentative agreement has been reached regarding the updates to required credentialing/licensure for Social Workers within the Care Management department.
We have been working for several months on a new collective bargaining agreement. The current discussion is about wages and other economic contract provisions.
Following yesterday’s highly attended vote meetings, members of our union Bargaining Team tallied up the ballots received- the results of which were nearly unanimous- and are proud to announce that our first Collective Bargaining Agreement is officially ratified!
Our Bargaining Team has reached a tentative agreement on a new contract and recommends a yes vote!
On November 12, our Bargaining Team had a fourth bargaining session with Management. We have made improvements on differentials and premiums, tuition reimbursement, required call out times, diversity and inclusion, workplace violence, and language addressing AI.
Following a nearly seventeen hour bargaining session with Management- beginning Monday, November 10 and concluding after midnight on Tuesday the 11- our union Bargaining Team representing the Professionals at Providence St. Peter Hospital are proud to announce that we have reached a fully recommended tentative agreement on our first union contract!
Over the course of our two sessions, we continued to make significant progress on our first Collective Bargaining Agreement; in fact, the majority of contract articles outlining general definitions of terms throughout the CBA, union administration, employer administration, work schedules, & many more, are wrapped up- totaling nearly seventy (70) individual Articles we have reached mutual agreement on.
On Wednesday, October 1, our union Professionals Bargaining Team met with Providence for our fourth (4) session of first contract negotiations. At the session prior to today (September 4) our team had officially gotten the last of our new proposals on the table- which means now our bargaining days would primarily consist of exchanging counterproposals back and forth with Providence- until we reach mutually agreed upon language (also known as tentative agreements)- & to date we have already reached more than thirty (30!) tentative agreements on individual contract articles.
On Thursday, September 18, following highly attended vote meetings at Providence St. Peter Hospital, we are proud to announce that we have overwhelmingly ratified our 2025 union contract!
After more than six months of negotiations and uniting at our Hospital, our Bargaining Team has reached a tentative agreement and recommends a YES VOTE!
