Yesterday, tens of thousands of Coalition union members stickered-up in support of the ongoing strike of Local 39 engineers and 40,000+ Coalition union on a one-day sympathy strike in Northern California. From coast to coast to the plains and the islands, Coalition union members' solidarity ran strong and deep, showing Kaiser that if you mess with one of us, you mess with all of us.A special thank you to members of SEIU Healthcare 1199NW, SEIU Local 105, OPEIU Local 30, OPEIU Local 2, and Hawaii Nurses Association/OPEIU Local 50 ! ...

Today, Alliance of Health Care Unions march for sa Today, Alliance of Health Care Unions march for safe staffing and better patient care by firmly standing against two-tier wages and benefits at @kpthrive. As other hospitals raise wages, Kaiser is leading the race to the bottom. Patients and communities deserve better. Solidarity! ⏰12pm 📍Pasadena Memorial Park ✏️www.unioncoalition.org/no-two-tier-2021/
Coalition Union members took action today at facil Coalition Union members took action today at facilities in Colorado, Washington, and Southern California to educate patients that when @kpthrive pushes for two-tier wages and benefits, it not only shortchanges workers but it also shortchanges patient care. Quality patient care depends on unified teams that are supported and valued equally. We stand firmly united against divided pay, and with our Alliance siblings fighting for a fair contract. @ifpte20 @opeiul29 @opeiu_local_30 @hna_opeiu50 @seiu105 @seiu121rn @seiuhealthcare1199nw @seiuuhw @ufcwlocal555

While healthcare workers fight a devastating COVID While healthcare workers fight a devastating COVID surge, Kaiser has proposed an insulting two-tiered wage and benefit system to our union siblings. Let’s be clear: Shortchanging workers means shortchanging patient care. We hold firm against any attempt to divide us and undermine the quality care our patients deserve.

The agreement between Kaiser and the @ahcunions, o The agreement between Kaiser and the @ahcunions, other frontline workers like us, will expire in two weeks. Kaiser is pushing an array of cuts for those workers, most importantly lower wage rates for new hires— a first step to reducing pay for all of us. Sound familiar? Coalition workers narrowly averted a strike in 2019 to fight back these same cuts, and we must do everything we can to stop them again now. Visit unioncoaltion.org for more information and download a flyer to share at your worksite.
@ahcunions Bargaining Provides Sneak Peek at Kais @ahcunions Bargaining Provides Sneak Peek at Kaiser’s Agenda for Workers: Shortchange Future Workers, Undermine Current Workers’ Wages and Benefits, and Abandon Its Position as Industry Leader. We stand adamantly against any form of two-tier wages or benefits at Kaiser. Creating a lower wage and benefit structure divides the workforce and undercuts future workers. As unionists, we believe in equal pay for equal work and will fight against the creation of a second class of workers at Kaiser.

Must-read: This report from @greenhousenyt takes a look at five workers and documents how belonging to a union has lifted those workers, has improved their pay and benefits, and given them a far stronger voice at work.

We are happy to hear @AHCunions have just settled an agreement with Kaiser without a divisive two-tier system. We are proud of every single union member who took action to stop this attack on workers and patient care and bring about this victory, yet our work continues.

Not only are @aboutKP executives failing to confront the crisis in care brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, their drive for profits over people is making things even worse for patients and workers. Enough is enough @KPNorcal

An additional 40,000 Kaiser Permanente workers in northern California are voting to authorize a one day strike in solidarity with 700 building engineers who have been on strike for weeks.

This is in addition to the 32k KP workers who set a strike date for November 15

Workers across three states are preparing for a massive strike at Kaiser Permanente. The heart of the conflict is Kaiser's two-tier wage proposal, a rarity in health care. https://labornotes.org/2021/10/kaisers-outrageous-two-tier-wage-proposal-may-provoke-massive-strike
