NS fans turn up for Crosby's homecoming | SaltWireWASHINGTON - Kaiser Permanente appeared headed for a labor clash with 75,000 of its healthcare workers as union leaders said contract talks had stalled on Tuesday, leaving the two sides hours away from a threatened three-day strike in several states.
Kaiser said its hospitals and emergency departments would remain open in the event of a strike, staffed by doctors, managers and other non-union"contingency workers." A Kaiser spokesperson, Hilary Costa, disputed the union's assertion that negotiators were at a standstill. Even if there is a walkout, about 60% of Kaiser's workforce would remain on the job, as facilities in Georgia, Hawaii and most of Washington state would not be affected, a company spokesperson said.
Kaiser employs 68,000 nurses and 213,000 technicians, clerical workers and administrative staff, alongside 24,000 doctors.
