The workers, represented by 1199SEIU United Healthcare Workers East, have been in negotiations since last October, and have been without a contract for nearly a year, according to the article. Their last negotiation session Aug. 8 was unsuccessful.
Workers said they want to negotiate a contract with wages and a pension that are on par with the contracts of union members who work in the New York-Presbyterian health system at other sites in the area, reports the Bronxville Daily Voice.
Geoff Thompson, a spokesman for Lawrence Hospital, told the publication the hospital is continuing to negotiate in good faith with the union.
