Conifer St. Michael Medical Center Bargaining Update

Coming out of bargaining on Tuesday September 24, and Wednesday September 25, we have exchanged comprehensive economic and non-economic proposals with the Employer. There has been much conversation between the parties, and while at some times the temperature at the table has felt hot, we have been making movement as the table ebbs and flows.

However, the Employer has shown to be resistant to accepting our proposals, and it is clear we will need to stand together and build power and solidarity in order to win the wage increases and changes to the contract that we deserve. We look forward to seeing all of you at our upcoming (and future!) Contract Action Team meetings where we can discuss how we can put pressure on the Employer to win a fair contract, and stand shoulder to shoulder together.
