As you know, we reached a tentative agreement (TA) with Overlake at our eleventh bargaining session on June 17, 2024. This TA gets you wages close to or at par with the increases that the highest paid Seattle-Bellevue area union hospital nurses will receive later this year. It equalizes step increases in September 2024, implements immediately-available sick leave in January 2025, and improves contractual protections for staffing and break relief, among other benefits.

While we previously summarized the highlights of this agreement, here is a more detailed summary . Please join us on-site at Overlake on June 28 or July 1 (see times and locations below) to vote on the TA. Bargaining team members and WSNA staff will be on hand to answer questions.
