NYSNA NURSES END STRIKE AFTER WINNING CONCRETE ENFORCABLE SAFE STAFFING RATIOS
This is from the New York City Central Labor Council. You don't want to strike but unions must have the weapon of withholding labor available if necessary.
Montefiore releases statement Montefiore President and CEO Philip O. Ozuah released the following statement after the agreement was reached:
"We came to these bargaining sessions with great respect for our nurses and with proposals that reflect their priorities in terms of wages, benefits, safety, and staffing. We are pleased to offer a 19% wage increase, benefits that match or exceed those of our peer institutions, more than 170 new nursing positions and a generous plan to address recruitment and retention."
19% salary increase!!! That's what I like to hear! For us I'm sure Mulgrew will begin with a 3% raise offer, phased in over 3 years- and settle for a 1% deal and tell membership what a great deal we "won"!!

Are those state nurse unions or city unions? How do you think this could impact "pattern bargaining"?
ReplyDeleteThose are private sector unions. Their settlement could be mentioned but it is unknown if it will have any impact on us.
