Local 5185 Negotiations Update, May 16, 2024
On May 16, your Negotiating Committee met with high level executive management, including the Chief Financial Officer, to discuss CarePoint’s finances.
- CarePoint continues to struggle financially.
- Management has still not provided the information we have requested on the deals with HRH and Insight.
- Management has asked for a contract extension, meaning our contract would go on for another year with no changes. It is being considered.
- Our next negotiating session is May 29th.
What you can do:
- May 22, 2024, at 6:00 PM The Jersey City City Council will be voting to support the NJ Safe Staffing Law and ALL HPAE members going into bargaining this year. Please attend and show your support!
