Puget Sound Allied Grocery Stores Vote YES to Authorize a Strike & NO on a Bad Contract!

As the time to reach a deal came down to the wire, the companies acted with no urgency.

So what does that mean?

Simply put, this means that our union bargaining team has reached a final agreement with MultiCare on the part of the contract which will outline how we officially join the clinics Collective Bargaining Agreement.
