On October 5, employees at the Highline Clinics voted 76 to 7 to join SEIU Healthcare 1199NW. We sent a strong message to management that we want a seat at the table in the decisions that impact our jobs. Now we can have a say in how our hospital is run and we can negotiate a contract with improvements in wages, break time, and benefits.
Today, we will continue to build our strength and unity as we take the next steps toward winning our first contract.
