Hundreds of healthcare workers at UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital Oakland have initiated an indefinite strike against proposed pay cuts tied to a transition to employment under the University of California. The National Union of Healthcare Workers, which represents over 1,000 hospital employees, argues these changes threaten job security and seniority. UCSF Health claims the financial adjustments will ultimately unify the workforce and enhance patient care. Striking workers rallied outside the hospital, showcasing solidarity amid fears that staff may leave due to reduced pay and benefits as a result of this transition.
"The strike is a response to the University of California's transition plan, which health care workers fear will lead to significant pay cuts and job insecurity."
"UCSF Health acknowledges the impact of the transition on some workers' pay but believes it will ultimately create a more unified and effective health care workforce."
