Boston-based Partners Healthcare, which owns Cooley Dickinson, has a partnership with SEIU, local 1199. The majority of service workers, administrators and other non-clinical workers voted to join the union Thursday.
“It has been CDH’s position from the beginning that we respect the right of employees to make free and fully informed decisions on the question of unionization through the process of a secret ballot election,” said Cooley Dickinson President Joanne Marqusee. “This is fully consistent with the respect we have always had for our employees, and with our core values.”
SEIU represents roughly 56,000 healthcare workers in Massachusetts.
