Hello postdocs,

6 hours after our last proposal…

OHSU DID NOT HAVE THE RIGHT PEOPLE AVAILABLE TO MAKE A COUNTER TO OUR PROPOSAL.

We have 1 more day of mediation before a strike and we need your support now more than ever. If you will be on the picket line with us, fill out the survey now. If you don’t sign up for strike shifts, we won’t have food for you to eat while on strike: https://forms.gle/CvHdX5BYAeX7eVru5

Here is a comparison of what is currently on the table: 

We also announced to OHSU that we have full support from the Teamsters Joint Council 37 to engage in a strike sanction. The Teamsters will not cross our picket lines to deliver packages to OHSU. This is an exceptional show of solidarity and poses a huge financial risk to OHSU. OHSU can easily avoid this by reaching a settlement with us before we strike on Thursday. 

We know a strike will not be painless for you. A large demonstration early on is what will make for a swift strike. Join us on the strike line, and let us know when you will be there: https://forms.gle/CvHdX5BYAeX7eVru5

In Solidarity, 

Your Bargaining Team
