Day 3 Local Bargaining
Day 3 – Local Bargaining Update
April 25, 2025
USW Local 7600 Bargaining Team
Today marked Day 3 of local bargaining between USW Local 7600 and Kaiser Permanente. KP presented their initial interests — some of which aligned with ours, particularly on staffing and backfill.
We used this opportunity to reaffirm our core priorities, including improvements to alternative work schedules and better work-life balance for our members.
Bargaining will resume on May 2, where we will continue to press KP on the following key issues:
- Economics
- Staffing & backfill guarantees
- Work-life balance
- Dispute resolution
- AI impacts on labor
- Career growth & professional development
- Workplace safety
We remain committed to advancing our priorities at the table and will continue to keep you informed every step of the way.
Stay tuned. Stay engaged. Stay union strong.
