Several Twin Cities Hospitals illegally locked out Twin Cities RNs today by not following language in the labor contract regarding how Twin Cities nurses are supposed to be called (or not called) back to work. Some hospitals also did not follow the contract language dictating that nurses are supposed to be called back by seniority. MNA has filed Unfair Labor Practice (ULP) charges with the National Labor Relations Board.
Hospitals involved include:
- Abbott Northwestern – Illegally locked out at least 60 RNs
- Children’s Minneapolis – Illegally locked out at least 12 RNs
- Children’s St. Paul – Illegally locked out at least 20 RNs
- United Hospital – Illegally locked out at least 30 RNs
