One employee said a strike is a “very real possibility” if their concerns aren’t met.
The Coalition — which includes SEIU-UHW, SEIU Local 121RN, UFCW, several OPEIU locals and IFPTE Local 20 — began its national bargaining process in April. The workers’ labor contract will expire Sept. 30.
Miriam de la Paz, who works in the labor and delivery department at Kaiser’s Downey facility, said she’s constantly overloaded with work. Frank Hurtarte, senior vice president of human resources for Kaiser’s Southern California and Hawaii operations, said Kaiser’s priority is to reach an agreement that “ensures the company can continue to provide market-competitive pay and outstanding benefits.
“Staffing challenges have been happening all across health care, but are actually less true at Kaiser Permanente now than elsewhere,” Hurtarte said.
