According to the lawsuit, HPAE officials accused medical center officials of denying fair wages to nurses, making unilateral changes to insurance coverage, failing to make 401k contributions, improperly laying off staff and blocking protected union organizing activities.
While exact details of the lawsuit have yet to be released, HPAE officials estimate that just two claims, failing to provide nurse intern wages and failing to provide 401K contributions, would amount to more than $2.5 million, according to the article.
It remains unclear whether the decision will impact the hospital’s potential sale to an ambulatory surgery center in Hackensack, N.J currently under review by the state.
