Last Monday, the 9th, nurses at these two hospitals in New York decided to go on strike to protest the decisions taken in their contractual negotiations. The protest concerns the amounts received as salary. That is, they are all in denial of what is being offered. The act promptly mobilized many workers. Hospitals had to reschedule appointments and procedures that were scheduled.
In defense of workers, Mario Cilento, President of the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO) from NY reported: “These nurses are dedicated professionals who provide quality care to patients in conditions unimaginable”.
“The treatment given by hospitals to these nurses is proof that all their words of adulation for their health heroes during the pandemic were empty”, added Cilento.
With the demonstration, the hospitals issued a statement in which they pointed out that they offered a 19.1% increase in salary. The Montefiore Medical Center, for example, has expressed itself saying that it is taking the necessary measures to create 170 new positions for nurses.
“We remain committed to continued compassionate care, recognizing that the union leadership's decision will provoke fear and uncertainty in our community,” he said.
After the demonstration, Montefiore also pointed out that it was necessary to reschedule all surgeries and procedures that were planned for the outpatient clinic. Likewise, Sinai signaled that most consultations and exams had to be postponed. Contract negotiations began four months ago.
Since then, the union has promoted actions to close new agreements between hospitals in New York. Last Sunday, he signaled that he offered provisional agreements for nurses who went on strike.
