"We Are Still In Danger" UPTE CWA Social Workers Speak At UCSF Mission Bay Campus

UPTE CWA UCSF social workers rallied on March 5, 2026 with hundreds of members at UCSF Mission Bay campus to protest the murder of a member Alberto Rangel at San Francisco General, the lack of health and safety and also the fight for equal wages with other social workers.
Two of the social workers who worked on Ward 68 at San Francisco General Hospital also talked about the incident and the refusal of the UCSF management to rectify their conditions and health problems directly as a result of the murder of a colleague.
They reported that the Chancellor of UCSF Sam Hawgood continues to refuse to even meet with the union and workers to the incident and what UCSF management is planning to do about it. UCSF bosses also issued a statement warning that no UCSF worker can speak publicly about the health and safety condition because there were legal cases pending.
The attempt to silence workers about health and safety problems is an unfair labor practice snd a violation of Federal labor law.
