UP Health System Marquette MAST, RN unions file grievance over changes to health insurance
The MAST and RN unions at UP Health System Marquette have recently filed a grievance over changes to their health insurance plans. The unions are alleging that the changes violate their collective bargaining agreements and are seeking resolution through arbitration.
Unions allege violations of collective bargaining agreements
According to the unions, the changes to the health insurance plans were made without their input or consent, and they argue that this is a violation of their collective bargaining agreements. The unions claim that the changes will result in higher out-of-pocket costs for members and could impact their access to care.
The unions are also concerned that the changes could lead to a reduction in benefits for members, including coverage for certain procedures and medications. They argue that these changes could have a negative impact on the overall health and well-being of their members.
Seeking resolution through arbitration
In response to the changes, the unions have filed a grievance with the company and are seeking resolution through arbitration. They are calling on UP Health System Marquette to reconsider the changes and to work with the unions to find a solution that is fair and equitable for all parties involved.
The unions are also urging members to stay informed and engaged in the process, and to stand together in solidarity during this challenging time. They are committed to fighting for the rights and benefits of their members, and will continue to advocate for a resolution that meets the needs of all parties.
UP Health System Marquette has not yet responded to the grievance, but the unions are hopeful that a resolution can be reached through arbitration. In the meantime, they are encouraging members to reach out to their union representatives with any questions or concerns about the changes to their health insurance plans.
