St. Michael Medical Center: Service & Dietary

SPECIAL VOTE NOTICE: Memorandum of Understanding
Dietary Unit Host

As you may remember, we have already ratified the St. Michael Medical Center (Harrison) Service & Dietary Contract. However, the Employer has since approached the Union requesting that we add a new Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) regarding the new “Dietary Unit Host” position.

The Employer would like Dietary Unit Hosts to work under a 12-hour shift schedule, currently prohibited under our contract, so they have proposed this new MOU to create an exception for this new position. If approved, this MOU would only affect members classified as a Dietary Unit Host and would not authorize the Medical Center to schedule other job classifications under a 12-hour shift schedule.

The proposed addition must be approved through a full membership vote, the decision is up to you! We will be sending out a vote packet with your ballot and a summary of the proposed changes to the mailing address we have on file.

We will be holding a contract vote meeting to explain the tentative agreement via Zoom on Friday, October 2 @ 8-9AM and 4-5PM. Instructions to join will be included in your vote packet.
