Mason Health RN Bargaining Update: Significant Progress Made

Bargaining Team: Nancy Ownby, Megan Corbin, Tori Willis

We have been working long hours this week, trying to reach agreement on a new contract that brings us up to the standards of other local hospitals and keeps us competitive over the next three years.

This has been a complicated process, and we have dug deep into many internal hospital practices and policies. In the process, we have challenged management on many levels. We have made significant progress and are hoping we can get to a tentative agreement soon.

Stay tuned for additional information.

Mason Health RN Bargaining Update

“We feel that we have fulfilled our full workload for yesterday and today.” -Megan Corbin

Today we delivered an economic package proposal to management including significant increases to wages and premiums including Resource RN Differential, and BSN/MSN Premium. We are trying to find ways to make the wage scale more competitive with other nearby hospitals.

We have also proposed changes to the definition for full time and part time to be inclusive of 12 hour shifts (so three twelves per week equals full-time.) Management continues to fight us on this.

Other changes include redefining the clarification of longevity increases and Report Pay process, and a significant overhaul of Earned Time. We meet again with Management on January 29.
