PSP Victory!
As an Alliance, we pushed Kaiser to give higher PSPs and when we fight, we win.
For the Washington region, a full-time employee (having worked 1,800 hours) will receive $2,000 in your Performance Sharing Plan (PSP) bonus this year!
In 2023, we crushed the Affordability and Safety goals, yet didn’t meet the Quality and Service goals. With these PSP results and our region not meeting the financial gate, KP was only contractually obligated to pay each full-time member ~$750.
Yet we all know the region’s finances are not the fault of UFCW3000 members. With our below market wages, putting more money into PSP bonuses is the least KP can do. And because of our Wage Up! Staff Up! Partner Up! Campaign alongside our Affordability savings, KP said they’d pay $1,500 in our PSP bonus.
We responded to their $1,500 and said that’s not enough, and because we stood united and were quick to mobilize, we won more.
Washington, Colorado, and Mid-Atlantic regions—all regions that did not meet the financial gate—will be receiving $2,000.00 per member* which is over $5 million moved from Kaiser’s pockets and into those of its workers!
*If not a full-time, employee this amount with be pro-rated based on the number of hours worked last year
What to expect:
March 15 paycheck: $1500 check (minus taxes)
March 29 paycheck: $500 check (minus taxes)
For now, we celebrate our work to hold Kaiser accountable in doing the right thing, yet we know this doesn’t do what is needed: fix understaffing or raise wages.
