Valley General Hospital: Yes to contract ratification!

By a vote of 99% Valley General members ratified our new contract. We moved management significantly higher than their initial wage proposals, and won important protections against subcontracting of our work.

“From the very beginning, we knew that improving our language regarding subcontracting of our work was key in getting a fair contract. Valley General Hospital kept telling us that they have no plans for doing any subcontracting but we wanted to make sure there is language in our contract that helps to protect our jobs. We are very pleased with the new contract language and our contract as a whole.” —Pete Bulpett, Maintenance
