Kaiser Mental Health Workers in SoCal Strike
Season 2024
Episode 224
Over 2,400 Kaiser Mental Health workers went on strike in October, demanding the same benefits Northern California workers secured: more prep time between appointments, a wage increase, and better pension benefits. No agreement has been reached yet. Both the National Union of Healthcare Workers and Kaiser Permanente have acknowledged the strike and are continuing negotiations.
