Negotiation Update #2

“In recent years BWH has met all of their financial performance goals and anticipate a $100 million profit.”

~BWH CFO Michael Renzy

Yet:

• No raise
• Elimination of double time
• No agreement to freeze parking rates
• Require new RNs to go into FLEX (health insurance)
• Floating to off-site locations (Foxboro, 850 Boylston)
• Elimination of 5 sick days and 2 holidays, but add 4 vacation days
  
  Doesn ’t take a CFO to figure that: 5 + 2 = 7 - 4 = net loss of 3 days!

All this on the heels of a 450% increase in insurance premiums earlier this year. And so it continues . . . . . . . . .
