Tufts Medical Center Nurses Stage a Strike

Many people become frustrated with their jobs at one point or another. Maybe you’re upset about the 10 year old laptop that you’re still forced to work on. There’s a chance that you’re having an issue with a co-worker or simply don’t like getting up so early to battle rush hour traffic and get to work on time. Perhaps you don’t like your overbearing, micromanaging boss. Then again, maybe you’re upset about changes to your health care coverage, or loss of dental or vision coverage. While normal grumblings about dissatisfaction are common, it rarely gets serious enough to unite all employees against the employer. At Tufts Medical Center in Boston, MA, that is exactly what is happening. Over 1,200 nurses in the union are threatening to walk off jobsite on July 12th in protest of the contract negotiations that have been ongoing for quite some time. There is one more negotiating session set up for July 11th in an attempt to avoid an all-out strike by the nurses. Currently, these nurses are upset with wages, pension protections and understaffing. These three major issues are driving a wedge between the parties in negotiations, causing Tufts Medical Center to scramble to find replacements in case an agreement is not reached to avoid the strike. While Tufts claims that they have a plan in place should the nurses decide to strike, there is still tension and stress surrounding the issue. Truthfully, understaffing is an issue that many nurses working in hospitals face. This can lead to working unplanned double shifts, and add stress into the lives of nurses. A lack of fair compensation and retirement packages only add to that mix. Fortunately, there are jobs for nurses that don’t require working long, strenuous hours and dealing with the ups and downs of contract negotiations. Are you looking for a job as a nurse without the hassle of strikes and trying work conditions? If you are a certified nurse, but are struggling through long days and nights in the hospital or medical facility that you work out, it might be time to look at other options.
