Nursing Home workers in our union are going to be seeing our biggest raise yet this year. We’ve come out in big numbers in 2013, 2014, and in 2015. We advocated for quality care and better funding for the programs that help our residents, and our work at the Capitol paid off yet again.
Since last year, we’ve seen our wages go up in the following ways:
- A new wage scale to account for combined years of service and experience
- .35 step increases on our anniversary date
This year’s wage increase will be $1.07 per hour effective October 1, 2015!
