New LSCHC Professional Contract

The members of the union's Professional Unit at the Lake Superior Community Health Center voted unanimously to accept the new contract that was negotiated between the company and the union.  It was a tough set of negotiations that began with the two sides very far apart, but by the end we came to a compromise.  For our part, we were glad to be able to prevent any of the concessions that the company was asking for, and to at least get some modest gains in wages and benefits.  There are more changes and improvements that we are hoping to win in future contract negotiations, however.  Thank you to the Negotiating Committee for its hard work, and to all of the members who came out to vote.  Solidarity works!
