Some UC Employees To Vote on Strike Authorization

Between May 17 and May 22, about 20,000 patient-care and service workers at UC facilities will vote on giving their contract negotiating team the ability to authorize a strike. The patient-care workers have been without a contract since September 2007, and the service workers have been without a contract since January.
