UNMH L&T Ratification Vote
Jan 09, 2015

 

Ratification Vote for License and Technical Contract
 
 
District 1199NM and UNM Hospital have tentatively agreed to a three (3) year contract for the License and Technical bargaining unit. Negotiations have been hard fought by your Negotiation Team. There were several take backs proposed by Management that would have meant significant losses in take home pay for some L&T employees that we were able to fight off. We believe that the agreement we will be presenting you is the best agreement we could get at this time. Although there is no increase in wages, we did make significant gains in the language that will afford L&T employees better job protection as well as clarification of some economic issues that will benefit employees;
 
·       Clarification of “premium” and “differential” language. All eligible employees will now be paid “differentials” (weekday night, weekend day, and weekend night) for vacation, sick leave, etc.
·       If your meal period is “interrupted by work” you “must cancel the auto-deduct or submit and edit sheet”. 
·       For employees that earn Compensatory Time, you will earn 2 hours of comp time for every hour of double time worked.
·       Extended time frames, statute of limitations, and some reciprocity in language for the Union and Management for Discipline and the Grievance Procedure.
·       Hospital Seniority shall be defined by length of service, i.e. hire date.
·       Employees shall retain Department Seniority regardless of position or FTE status as long as they remain in the same department.
·       Changes in request periods for Vacation Scheduling.
·       Observed Holidays “shall be rotated and granted on an equitable basis”, seniority shall not prevail.
·       Please see reverse for Wages, Benefits, Sick Leave, and Holidays.
