“Our name might have changed but our Union still stands strong for a fair contract!”

OUR PRO-TECH BARGAINING TEAM: Judy Shoesmith, Kain Mcleod, Connie Baker, Rob Shauger, Don Szabo, Ona Burkett, Sonja Hammes

Your Bargaining Team met with Management again on June 9 and made additional progress towards a fair contract. We were able to maintain successorship language, which protects our contract from future mergers or acquisitions, and reached an agreement to discuss the placement of Union bulletin boards at the new Silverdale Hospital.

However, we still have significant obstacles to overcome before we reach an agreement with the Medical Center. Management continues to demand that we forfeit our Union healthcare, has rejected our requests for fair double-time language, and we remain far apart on wage increases that ensure ALL positions at St. Michael Medical Center remain market competitive.  

If you have any questions, please attend next week’s Contract Action Team meeting or contact your Union Rep Aimee Oien @ 360-662-1981.
