Frontline employees at eight Sutter Health facilities, including Sutter Lakeside, have reached a tentative agreement with management, avoiding a strike. SEIU-United Healthcare Workers West (SEIU-UHW), representing over 4,400 workers, had voted to strike with 96% support. The union stated the agreement addresses staffing, working conditions, pay, and benefits. The tentative agreement, offering 14% raises and protected benefits, requires a ratification vote from union members later this month.
