Alliance bargaining: An update on local bargaining

On January 21, Kaiser Permanente reached out to the Alliance and leaders of all Alliance partner unions to inform them that they were moving beyond the monthslong gridlock of national bargaining to resolve all remaining issues at the local bargaining tables. The chart below reflects the current status of all Alliance local tables and will be updated regularly to reflect progress made.
