Contract negotiations update
Posted Jul 29, 2020
On July 22, your coalition negotiation team met with management for the 2nd time. During this session we received a “What if” proposal from management that reflected the poor financial status of the state. We are working on a response which we will present at our next session August 6.
We have scheduled two Local Unit meetings to discuss contract negotiations with you:
Meeting #1: July 30, 2020 from 0800-0900 – Small Conference Room
Meeting #2: July 30, 2020 from 1500-1600 – Small Conference Room
Please wear any WSNA materials (buttons, badge holders, stickers, etc.) to show your support for a fair contract!
WE ARE WSNA!
ADO - Online Staffing Complaint form – Use it!
Completing the form serves many purposes, including data tracking, bringing issues to light, supportive documentation, and a discussion tool to make things better. It is not punitive.
This form is to be completed for issues including but not limited to:
- Staffing concerns
- Missed breaks or earned time denied
- In the event of equipment issues or system failure
If you have reason to complete this form, you first should speak with your manager or charge nurse for that shift in order to try to resolve the concern as quickly as possible. When you complete the online form, you are encouraged to include your manager’s name and email.
After you complete the form a copy of the submitted form immediately goes to you, the WSNA chair, WSNA Rep, and your manager (provided you have entered their email). The Labor/management committee (UMCC) will review the complaint at their next meeting.
Find the staffing complaint form at wsna.org/ado.
