Unions issued a notice of an unfair-labor-practice strike, as negotiations end ahead of a Sept. 30 contract expiration.
More than 75,000 healthcare workers are set to strike for three days in October over what they say are bad-faith negotiations by Kaiser Permanente executives regarding staffing issues, their unions said Friday.
“Kaiser executives refuse to acknowledge how much patient care has deteriorated or how much the frontline healthcare workforce and patients are suffering because of the Kaiser short-staffing crisis,” Dave Regan, the president of SEIU-United Healthcare Workers West, said in a statement Friday. Kaiser spokesperson Steve Shivinsky said Friday that “a strike notice does not mean a strike will happen.” “For the last 26 years of our historic labor-management partnership, we have reached agreements with the Coalition every time, with no strikes,” Shivinsky said.
