“The hospital is encouraged and sees this as a favorable step,” Dave Cuzzolina, a UPMC Altoona spokesman, said in a written statement about the meeting plans.

The two groups have not been able to reach a contract agreement. The union has found fault with the contract’s health insurance, retirement benefits and staffing guidelines.
