Following the employer’s unacceptable conduct during our previous bargaining session, and the significant distance remaining between the parties, our Union Bargaining Team asked the employer if they would agree to request assistance from the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (FMCS). The employer agreed, and an FMCS mediator was available to join us beginning with this session.
The time has come to make your voices heard! We encourage all Radiant Care workers to attend our scheduled vote meeting to review the full details of our new tentative agreement, ask questions, and cast your ballot!

Theorem bargaining team, Haily Nowak and Chloe Casey, cooking up TAs!
Our union bargaining team met with management last week to continue negotiating for our first contract. We proposed an entire draft contract at our first session and in May, Theorem responded to these articles:
Recognition (defining our unit positions and protecting bargaining unit work)
Union Security (defining membership, dues processes, and safeguarding our union)
Union Representation (securing union stewards, bulletin boards, access to our Rep, time off for union business, and new hire orientation)
Labor Management Committee (creating a protected space to collaboratively address non-contract workplace issues)
Discipline & Discharge (protecting job security and preventing unfair treatment through just cause and progressive discipline)
Grievance & Arbitration (creating a process for addressing contract violations)
Theorem also made a Management Rights proposal. After going back and forth on these in June, we're excited to share that we reached three tentative agreements (TAs), securing strong contract language on Recognition, Union Representation, and Labor Management Committee!
We're hopeful that at our next meeting on July 9, we'll make progress on the rest of the non-economics (including Health & Safety and Employment Practices, which includes provisions on job promotions & openings and anti-discrimination). We have also asked management to commit to making an economics counterproposal on July 24, so we can keep pushing forward and win a fair first contract with the wage increases we deserve.

Jenny C., a transporter at Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center in Spokane, knows what it looks like when management hopes a problem will just go away.
Jenny has watched the facility's transport elevators malfunction for more than a year, filing report after report after each incident she witnessed. Supervisors did not appear to take these complaints seriously.
