"The union has offered unrealistic counterproposals in response and has chosen to strike instead of continue with good-faith negotiations," the hospital statement said. Specific union concerns, according to an SEIU-UHW statement, include "longstanding issues of understaffing, worker turnover and patient care concerns," in addition to higher wages.
"We are being intimidated and threatened for wanting to improve our hospital, while Providence executives bargain in bad faith over solutions to our short-staffing crisis," Christian Ayon, a lead surgical technician at Providence St. Joseph, said in a statement released by the union.
