I am a MN nurse at a possible strike hopital. There is no way they are going to float nurses to other hospitals. We are under extreme pressure to work 0 hours of overtime per pay period. Our managers go blistic with just a few extra hours. It would take lots of money and training time for me to float to other hospitals. It's just not going to happen. The management to just bluffing. It would also cause liability problems.

I am a MN nurse and my hospital is on the possible strike list. There is a strike vote on May 19 that will determine whether or not there will be a strike beginning on June 1, 2010. The union leaders very much want to strike and the nurses at my hospital want to strike. The main issue is reducing the pension fund by 1/3. There are some other issues that I think are so crazy that the hopitals are just bluffing. I really want to keep my job. I have no seniority as I just started about 8 months ago. Do you think I could lose my job if I strike?? Is it legal?? The leaders at my hospital are so pro strike that I dont have anyone to talk to. Any advice??
