SEIU United Healthcare Workers West said nearly 60,000 workers in California had approved a possible strike, teeing up what could be the biggest strike by healthcare workers in U.S. history.
Tens of thousands of workers at Kaiser Permanente hospitals and clinics across the country will soon vote on whether to authorize a strike, union officials said., saying that it can lead to alarmingly long wait times for patients, said management proposals on wages and workforce development would only worsen the staffing crisis, and argued that the health system had not bargained with them in good faith.
SEIU-UHW President Dave Regan said that workers “have overwhelmingly voted to authorize a strike because we will not simply stand by as Kaiser violates the law and puts patients at risk.” Kaiser Permanente said in a statement Thursday that it was confident that it would soon reach an agreement “that strengthens our position as a best place to work and ensures that the high-quality care our members expect from us remains affordable and easy to access.”
It called the vote to authorize a strike “a disappointing action considering our progress at the bargaining table” and disputed union claims about its proposals, saying that it was offering wage increases and has been aggressively recruiting to fill positions.
