Upcoming Bargaining Sessions

Our upcoming scheduled bargaining sessions are on this Thursday and Friday, March 9 and 10, with additional sessions on March 20, 29 and 30. The contract expires on March 31.

On bargaining days and Blue Fridays, please continue to show your WSNA team spirit by wearing your WSNA swag, buttons and stickers.

You can be creative by wearing Blue clothing or scrubs, or your WSNA T-shirts if allowed in your department.

What happens during bargaining sessions? Come find out. Come support your team. We’re welcoming observers. Contact WSNA Organizer Grace if you’re interested, glamonte@wsna.org or call/text 206-553-9794.

Sign the Petition

Let’s stand in unity on the importance of safe staffing ratios, break nurses, realistic expectations for Per Diem nurses and for a fair contract.

We will deliver the signed petition to MultiCare Administration. Rather than deliver on March 15 as planned, we’re working on another strategic day to deliver it.

Please sign the petitions in your breakrooms or sign here online:
