Planned Parenthood - Bargaining Continues

Our Bargaining Team met with Management on Wednesday to receive Management’s non-economic proposals for our contract. Unfortunately, many of these proposals were outright anti-union including:

  • Using union dues to cover the cost of Management’s attorneys’ fees for lawsuits related to our contract

  • Large expansions of Management rights, potentially eroding union rights 

  • Voiding the entire union contract’s protections during “emergencies” as defined by Management

  • Allowing discipline and attendance to determine layoff and recall instead of seniority and disrupting seniority for certain recall scenarios

  • Limiting workers’ ability to take action educating co-workers and the public during contract disputes and bargaining

Our Bargaining Team proposed adding per diem employees to our contract, and Management rejected the idea entirely. If you work with a per diem, please reach out to a member of the Bargaining Team.

We need to stand together for a contract that improves our wages and working conditions with NO TAKEAWAYS. Wear your sticker to support the Bargaining Team when we return to the table May 10!

Your Bargaining Team: Charlie King, PAC Rep - Tacoma; Monalisa Baumann, MA - Kent; Jennifer Morgan, PCC - Tacoma; Sage Alixander, Insurance Biller - Seattle
