Sacred Heart Techs Tentative Agreement Reached!

TENTATIVE AGREEMENT REACHED 

After nearly 8 months of negotiations and taking a historic act of solidarity by going an 8.5 day Unfair Labor Practice strike, our bargaining team has reached a recommended tentative agreement on a new contract.

Our Contract Ratification Vote will be held this Friday May 31, 2024, at the Hampton Inn (Rockwood Retreat Room 3) located at 675 McClellan St., Spokane, WA, any time between 6:30am to 7:30pm.

Our bargaining team will present the last offer received from Providence. Members will have the opportunity to discuss the terms and implications of the offer before proceeding to a vote on whether to ratify or reject the proposed contract.

All members in the Providence Sacred Heart Technical Unit are encouraged to be part of this important vote. Your voice and vote are essential to building power for the future. Only members in good standing are eligible to vote.

For questions, please contact your bargaining team or Union Representative Juanita Quezada, 509-340-7407.

“We fought hard until the very end for the betterment of the entire bargaining unit. Our strike only solidified our unity and we were successful in pushing Providence as far as they would go. We are proud of our coworkers- this is the best contract we’ve ever received from Providence. This is a start… not an end… and we need to continue organizing and building power for future negotiations. We look forward to seeing everyone at the Vote.” - Our Providence Sacred Heart Tech Bargaining Team: Derek Roybal, Janelle Mathias, Craig Kistler, Lee Lidman, Joe Sikkila, Shane Sullivan, Miriam Critelli, Teresa Bowden, Angela Holmes, Holly Granly
