We are the Technical Workers of USW Local 9460 at the Essentia
Hospitals and Clinics in the Duluth Superior Metropolitan Areas. We have been fighting
for a fair contract for over 6 months.
We are the hidden healthcare heroes that support the
important work in the clinics and hospitals.
We are willing to work hard to ensure patients receive the care
they deserve in a timely manner, but 46% of healthcare workers report feeling
burnt out. Instead of looking for solutions to the staffing crisis and how to
support workers, Essentia has fought to cut our time off and expand where we
work.
Essentia is a successful employer that can and should
invest in its greatest asset – workers committed to providing the best care and
service to our communities.
Sign our petition to Essentia and CEO David Herman demanding they
invest in patient care!
