Samaritan Healthcare – Action Needed: Bargaining Priorities

Message to OPEIU Local 8 represented at Samaritan Healthcare sent on March 18, 2026

__

Our union contract is set to expire at the end of this June. Now, we are preparing to go negotiate our next contract at the bargaining table.

We need to be clear and united on our bargaining priorities. We need to hear from YOU about what improvements you want to see in the new contract. We won’t know unless you tell us! Please submit your survey as soon as possible but no later than 11:59 PM on April 4, 2026.
