Defend Kaiser Healthcare Workers & Patient Care-NUHW-CNA SF Picket
Kaiser NUHW and CNA workers went out on strike on January 31, 2012.
They took strike action against Kaiser's demands for the end of a defined
pensions and increased charges for healthcare for themselves and their
families. They are also attacking the benefits of part time workers.
National Union Of Healthcare Workers NUHW members also
discussed how Kaiser is stalling mental health patients and patients from
addictions from getting quick care despite their critical healthcare needs.
Workers also discussed the role of the SEIU UHW leadership in moving
to make major concessions and forcing the other unions on the property
to take similar concessions. The strike took place statewide and these
interviews took place at the San Francisco Kaiser hospital complex.
