Labor Dispute

Published

Anyone getting head hunter calls to travel to Massachusetts re a labor dispute? What's going on there? I received one of these calls yesterday.

different mind set, one to the other. Memorial wasn't union till Umass took them over. lots of adjusting.

The one I'm referring to is Worcester/Memorial....but the actual facility I worked for was on the North Shore.

This was after all the take overs....when U Mass cried bankrupted...the nurses made all those concessions and when a brief time later they had record profits they would give nothing back.

But working a relief assignment is NO game. I have supervised during labor disputes and it's a tough assignment for the bedside staff brought in....and the supervisor trying to help them. I'm not sure the $50.00 buck is worth how hard they work and the shor. albeit "safe", staffing
