USW Local 09620

We would like to inform you that the union has been notified by the hospital that they have done a market analysis and will be implementing a market adjustment. The union supports the hospital in making this decision. We were pleased to hear this news as we have been consistently telling the hospital administration throughout the past few years that a market adjustment needed to be done. This will not affect contract negotiations. We will still be proposing general wage increases in the upcoming negotiations.

Rapid Response News

Rapid Response, our union’s nonpartisan grassroots activist program, provides an opportunity for every USW member to weigh in on legislation concerning labor and work-related issues. By joining together, we encourage government actions that will positively impact our families, contracts and communities. Learn more!
