Providence Centralia Hospital RN - CONTRACT RATIFIED! Say Goodbye to Ghost Steps!
/On Tuesday, August 12, following highly attended vote meetings at Providence Centralia Hospital, our RN bargaining team is proud to announce that we have overwhelmingly ratified our new union contract!
What's Next?
Finalizing the Contract: Our union and Providence will now work to finalize and sign the new agreement. Once complete, printed copies will be distributed throughout the hospital.
Access in the Meantime: Redlined versions of the full agreement—including updated contract language and new wages—will be uploaded to our union's website so everyone can review and enforce our new contract right away.
Wage Increases: Our new wages will go into effect on the first full payroll period following ratification (August 12!)
LPN Experience Audit: Now that our CBA is officially in place, look out for a notification from Providence (this will come to your work email!) that the LPN experience form is published—this will be within 45 days from yesterday (at the latest, September 26). You will have 30 days once it's published to fill it out and submit to receive 2:1 credit on the new wage scale.
If you have any questions about our new union contract, please reach out to our Union Rep Collin Greer at 360-662-1982, or contact a member of our bargaining team!
