Sign Up to Support UMMAP
Our union siblings in UMMAP are striking for a fair first contract on 11/12. Members of the HOA should sign up to walk the picket line in support of them. Please do so during non-work time.
UPDATE: the work stoppage has been avoided for the time being. The 11/12 picket is cancelled.
Members of the University of Michigan Medicine Allied Professionals (UMMAP) have been fighting for a fair first contract for months. Thus far, the hospital has been unwilling to budge and has not proposes the types of wages and benefits that would help our union siblings earn what they are worth. As such, the members of UMMAP have called for a 24-hour work stoppage on 11/12/24. The HOA supports them in their efforts to get dignity on the job.
UMMAP represents 14o work classifications including: Lab and Pharmacy Techs, Technologists, Behavioral Health, Medical Assistants, Rehab Specialists, Surgery Techs, LPNs, Transplant Coordinators. Our care teams would not function without them and they need a good first contract they can be proud of.
The HOA urges its members to do two things:
- Show up to a UMMAP picket on 11/12 and show your support. You can sign up here. Please remembers that the HOA is not engaging in a work stoppage and you should picket on non-work time.
- On 11/12/24, do not volunteer to perform any work normally performed by striking UMMAP members. If you are ordered to perform any striking employee work, comply with the order and contact the HOA immediately.
