TEAMSTERS NURSES AT ASCENSION RATIFY CONTRACT, AVERT STRIKE
Registered nurses at Ascension Michigan represented by Teamsters Local 332 have voted overwhelmingly to ratify a collective bargaining agreement, averting a strike. The new one-year agreement includes significant wage increases, ratification bonuses, critical staffing bonuses for picking up shifts, an improved grievance procedure, strong per diem language, and protections from disciplinary action.
“Ascension nurses are integral to the functioning of our health care system, and they deserve nothing but the best possible contract,” said Dan Glass, President of Local 332. “Ascension nurses care deeply about their patients and the level of care they provide—and now, they have a strong agreement that will reward them for the commitment to their work. Local 332 is honored to represent this determined group of nurses because they were the driving force behind securing this agreement.”
