Developing story, check back for more photos, videos, and news coverage.
(April 27, 2020) — Nursing home workers are issuing 10-day strike notices at multiple facilities and could go on a ULP (unfair labor practice) strike on Friday, May 8th, 2020 if the nursing home association refuses to agree to a contract. The master association contract expires on April 30th.
Nursing home workers are on the frontlines of the Covid-19 pandemic. Workers from all across the region and state have spoken out that we are not being given proper PPE (personal protective equipment), training, immediate reporting of Covid-19 cases and communication by management with staff, as well as longstanding crises of short staffing, poverty wages, and unable to access paid sick time without punishment.
We also generated incredible news coverage from our announcement including the Associated Press; WBEZ Public Radio; the Chicago Tribune; Chicago Sun-Times; Daily Herald; WGN Ch. 9; ABC 7 Chicago; among many other media outlets.
