Emanuel Hospital Workers Rally

— expired

Jun 21, 2008 03:00 PM

Dawson Park

N Stanton St & Williams Ave

Contract campaign rally and barbeque

The union contract for over 400 hard-working members of SEIU Local 49 at Legacy Emanuel Hospital expires June 30th.


In 2005, Legacy's hard line at the negotiating table forced hundreds of workers out on strike, and their contract was not settled until four months after expiration - disrupting workers' lives and patients' care.


A year later, in 2006, Local 49 members at Good Samaritan Hospital in NW Portland, working similar jobs for the same employer, settled their contract without a strike. The Good Sam contract provided higher raises than the Emanuel contract.


Why does Legacy value workers at Good Sam more than those at Emanuel? Why does Legacy insist on keeping these workers separate and unequal?
