Bronx nursing home workers reach tentative deal with 4% annual raises
The union says the agreement would run through September 30, 2029; its announcement does not establish ratification.
1199SEIU says 100 employees at Concourse Rehabilitation and Nursing Center in the Bronx reached a tentative three-year agreement, averting a one-day strike planned for November 13.
Terms include 4% raises in each of three years and continued family health insurance with no premiums, deductibles or co-pays. The pension plan would also remain. Covered workers include certified nursing assistants, licensed practical nurses and food service staff, among other employees.
The deal would also limit the use of agency staff and create a fund for legal support for immigrant union members facing changes in work status.
