STRIKE OVER – NURSES REACH DEAL WITH HOSPITALS IN NYC



(UnitedVoice.com) – Thousands of New York City nurses agreed to return to work,
ending a strike that paralyzed several of the city’s hospitals. The nurses and
two major hospital systems negotiated a pay deal persuading the caregivers to
call off the strike. The deal could resolve years of festering issues in NYC
hospitals if it holds.

On Monday, January 9, around 7,000 nurses working in NYC’s Mount Sinai and
Montefiore hospital systems walked out in a dispute over pay and working
conditions. The two systems were the last in the state to negotiate deals with
the New York State Nurses Association (NYSNA). The medical health professionals
had called for better wages and improved staff-to-patient ratios because an
increase in respiratory illnesses in several wards intensified pressure.







After more than three days of striking, it seems the two sides reached an
agreement. The “tentative” deal between the NYSNA and Mount Sinai will give
nurses an 8.5% pay raise over 2022 levels, with further increases of 7.7% and
7.8% following in 2024 and 2025. Retired nurses aged 60-65 will receive a Health
Reimbursement Account plus annual payments of up to $15,000 towards health
insurance costs. The agreement also guarantees higher staff levels, with
enforcement clauses to ensure hospitals meet them.

NYSNA president Nancy Hagans said years of poor recruitment led to serious
understaffing, with 700 vacancies for nurses at New York’s Montefiore hospitals
and 500 more at Mount Sinai. The union argues that low staffing levels lead to
burnout among nurses and put patients in danger. Now, says Hagans, nurses can
“return to work with our heads held high.”

New York Governor Kathy Hochul (D) rushed to congratulate the nurses on the
deal. She said she’d been working ”round the clock” to push negotiations. Hochul
berated hospitals for not hiring more nurses earlier, claiming they hired
temporary staff during the strike.
