For this update, we are sharing a communication that was sent to employees of Harborview Medical Center from the interim CEO. The communication is as follows:<\/em><\/p>\n

Last night, after months of negotiations, the Harborview management team presented our last, best and final offer to our labor partners from SEIU 1199NW on a 2021-23 contract.<\/p>\n

The offer is the largest package we have ever put forward. It reflects our deep appreciation for our healthcare workers and acknowledges the dedication and commitment they have shown in caring for our patients during the pandemic. It also demonstrates Harborview\u2019s determination to retain and attract top talent, and to remain an employer of choice in this region.<\/p>\n

Included in the two-year package, which is valued at approximately $36 million, are some of the largest wage increases we\u2019ve ever offered, notably an unprecedented 8% increase for registered nurses over the life of the contract. The offer also addresses key labor concerns about parity, staffing and culture.<\/p>\n

This offer is the culmination of a months-long process during which the Harborview leadership team spent many hours listening to and learning from employees. By negotiating in good faith and responding to feedback, we have arrived at what we believe is a fair and equitable outcome \u2013 an offer that is nearly identical to the contracts recently ratified by our labor partners from WSNA at UWMC-Montlake and UWMC-Northwest.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, we were notified late last night by SEIU 1199NW that our offer has been rejected and that they will not bring it to their members for a vote. This is incredibly disappointing given the progress we\u2019ve made to date and the size of the package we\u2019ve put on the table.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re eager to implement the wage increases you\u2019ve earned and are hopeful our labor partners ultimately will put our offer before members for vote.<\/p>\n

Thank you for everything you continue to do for our patients, for each other, and for Harborview.<\/p>\n

In Gratitude,<\/p>\n

Sommer<\/p>\n
