SIUH/NYSNA NP Negotiation Update – June 8, 2021

Yesterday, Staten Island University Hospital (SIUH) met virtually with the New York State Nurses Association (NYSNA) for our 24th negotiation session.

We once again made significant progress, reaching conceptual agreements on nearly all of the outstanding economic issues. Although SIUH and NYSNA worked collaboratively late into the night in hopes of finalizing your new collective bargaining agreement, there remain a few administrative and procedural details – specifically related to converting your current paid time off into vacation and personal time banks – that still need to be sorted out. We are optimistic both parties will be able to meet virtually in the coming days to work through those remaining issues.
