The Massachusetts Public Health Council has already given the green light to a major expansion of Salem and the closing of Union.
Nurses and ancillary staff at the Lynn campus were already members of the union 1199SEIU, according to the report. At Salem, nurses were members of the Massachusetts Nurses Association.
Now, with all nursing jobs transferring to Salem, nursing staff would switch from 1199SEIU United Healthcare Workers East to the Massachusetts Nurses Association, according to the report. The union is subsequently looking to recruit ancillary employees at Salem to 1199SEIU, the Boston Business Journal notes.
Salem’s workers first have to vote on joining the union.
