July Bargaining Forums and Picket!
Note: We’ll be posting additional information about the picket soon — where to meet, what the route will be, what the plan is if the temperature is too high, etc.
Our union has been bargaining with OHSU for four months, our contract has expired and we’re scheduled for three more days of mediation in July. This month is our final push to reach a settlement at the table, and our bargaining team needs your support and feedback! Feel free to share the flyer with coworkers.
Bargaining Webinar: We’ll be holding another webinar to update our members on the current state of negotiations — we’ll cover what’s currently on the table, take questions about next steps in the mediation process and more.

Specialty Bargaining Forums: We’ll also be holding a second set of online forums for our salaried employees and remote workers to discuss contract language unique to them.
Salaried Employees — Talk to us about Appendix A.

Bargaining Support Picket: Your support at our recent rally meant a lot and sent a clear message to OHSU that our members are willing to fight for a good contract. Now we need your participation at this picket to push OHSU to make movement at the bargaining table. The picket is scheduled for the middle of a marathon two-day, in-person mediation session that’s taking place on campus. A strong turnout could help us reach a settlement!
