Recaps are published online on the <a href=\"https:\/\/hr.uw.edu\/labor\/staff-unions\/seiu-1199\/negotiation-updates\">UW Labor Relations website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEIU 1199NW Initial Proposals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Article 9 \u2013 Hours of Work and Overtime<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>9.5 Weekends \u2013 Registered Nurses\/Social Workers\/PA-ARNPs\/Leads<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Union proposed that the unscheduled weekend would be defined as a shift that is in addition to the employees posted scheduled shifts after the schedule is posted. Additionally, the Union proposed that employees who agree to work unscheduled weekend shifts would be paid at double-time the regular rate of pay.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Article 37 \u2013 Nonpermanent and Intermittent Employees <\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>37.7 Compensation H. Standby Premium<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Union proposed that the 3-hour callback minimum would apply to work in advance of a scheduled shift when the employee has been called back from standby. Additionally, the Union proposed that callback from standby, and the 3-hour minimum, would apply for all work taking place after the regularly scheduled shift end time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Article 45 \u2013 Wages and Other Pay Provisions <\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>45.7<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Union proposed that the 3-hour callback minimum would apply to work in advance of a scheduled shift when the employee has been called back from standby. Additionally, the Union proposed that callback from standby, and the 3-hour minimum, would apply for all work taking place after the regularly scheduled shift end time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>New MOU \u2013 Break Relief Expansion<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Union proposed that the Hospital Staffing Committee would implement a break relief program for all unit or floors where such programs did not exist. The Union proposed that this could involve additional FTEs and that the Employer would also implement an appropriate program for Respiratory Therapists.<\/p>\n<p><strong>New MOU \u2013 Prescheduling Overtime<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Union proposed a new MOU that would allow the Employer to offer prescheduled overtime once an initial schedule bid was incorporated and posted. The Union proposed that staff would not have to meet their FTE requirements to qualify for pre-scheduled overtime shifts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEIU 1199NW Counter Proposals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Article 9 \u2013 Hours of Work and Overtime <\/strong><br \/>\nIn response to the Employer\u2019s proposal, the Union rejected changes related to actual time reporting (ATR). This included the mention of 8\/80 schedules and the rules regarding accrual of overtime within ATR.<\/p>\n<p><strong>9.9 Rest Between Shifts \u2013 Registered Nurses<\/strong><br \/>\nIn response to the Employer\u2019s proposal, the Union proposed to strike the language that this subsection would apply to nurses. Instead, the Union proposed that this subsection would apply to all employees represented by SEIU 1199NW.<\/p>\n<p><strong>MOU \u2013 Pre-Scheduled voluntary Doubletime Shift Incentive for Critical Staffing Needs<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Union proposed that the determination of critical staffing needs and double time shift incentive would no longer be at the discretion of the Employer. Rather, the Union proposed that each department would have Double Time Guidelines detailing pre-scheduled double time, day of double time, the process for use of double time outside of outlined criteria, and general scheduling guidelines.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Next Steps <\/strong><br \/>\nThe next SEIU 1199NW and UW bargaining session is scheduled for June 3, 2025, and will be held in person.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Background This recap details the twelfth session for the renewal of the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) between the University of Washington and the Service Employees International Union 1199NW (SEIU 1199NW).
