UFCW 3000 Member Story: Kelly Beirdneaux

Kelly Beirdneaux standing strong for safe staffing!

Kelly Beirdneaux is a long-time LabCorp worker in the James Tower at the Cherry Hill Campus of Swedish Hospital. "Almost everyone will need a lab at some point in their lives," and Kelly knows how important her careful expertise is when making sure patients’ lab samples are properly processed for their medical providers. Without accurate lab results, proper diagnosis and treatment would be nearly impossible.

Kelly believes that a union contract, including great wages and working conditions, is crucial to caring for patients; because they help recruit and retain the best staff. That’s why she supports passing the Safe Staffing law for hospitals.  

Outside of work Kelly loves to play the drums—hard and fast!  She has been in bands most of her life.  You rock, Kelly!!
