Doctors, physicians’ assistants and nurse practitioners with Allina Health announced that they will hold a one-day unfair labor practices strike on Nov. 5.<\/p>\n

The group of over 600 health care workers voted to form a union with Doctors Council – SEIU in October 2023, and have been bargaining for a first contract since February 2024.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The union says they’ve met with Allina nearly 50 times with the intention of reaching an agreement<\/a> that “ensures their work is valued, they have safe working conditions and their voice is heard.”<\/p>\n

Over the summer, union members overwhelmingly voted to authorize a strike if they deemed it necessary.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On Friday, members said they’ll picket at the Allina clinic locations in Coon Rapids, West St. Paul and Richfield.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In response, Allina Health said it was “disappointed” that the group authorized a strike.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“While we have made substantial progress on a number of issues, the union’s request for significant compensation increases and extreme benefits proposals are simply not realistic or sustainable,” Allina Health said in a statement. “Given the rising health care insurance costs, the ongoing financial challenges for health care providers and anticipated reductions in reimbursements and programs like Medicaid, we\u202fcannot agree to a contract that\u202fwill add significant new costs and will undermine our ability to operate and serve the community.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Doctors, physicians’ assistants and nurse practitioners with Allina Health announced that they will hold a one-day unfair labor…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":252219,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[59],"tags":[97,252,253,64424],"class_list":["post-252218","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-health-care","tag-health","tag-health-care","tag-healthcare","tag-strike"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/252218","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=252218"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/252218\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/252219"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=252218"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=252218"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=252218"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
