Virginia Mason Franciscan Health - St. Joseph Medical Center Pharmacy Contract
/ St. Joseph Hospital/ UFCW 3000We started our sixth day of union contract negotiations with proposals in our court, which we began with a new cadence that we thought a might help our discussions get across and reach the Employer. While we did reach a few new Tentative Agreements (a three-year duration on our contract, clarity around suggesting new premium-eligible certifications through Labor Management Committee, and the removal of some old language referencing an effective date from three years in the past…), I’m sure you can imagine, these aren’t the topics of discussion which our Bargaining Team and coworkers at SJMC care the most about.
Following our union contract vote meetings on Monday, June 22, we are proud to announce that our new successor Collective Bargaining Agreement was overwhelmingly ratified.
