There is a trend of Hospital and health care workers launching union drives and protests across the country to demand higher wages and improved working conditions. The Service Employees International Union is putting together a campaign to organize hospital and health workers. The effort is comprised of four unionized hospitals in the Chicago area that will take part in the protest and advocate for new union contracts to address issues such as low pay, poor working conditions, unaffordable health care and inequities in hospital funding.
