Labcorp is a for-profit corporation that buys and runs hospital labs. They understaff them and underpay their employees with negative consequences for patient care. This is happening at multiple hospitals around Portland where Labcorp continues to rebuff efforts by the Oregon Federation of Nurses and Health Care Professionals to improve conditions.

Concerned about this situation, the Portland Jobs with Justice Workers’ Rights Board invites the community to a hearing on conditions at Labcorp facilities and ways to encourage productive negotiations between the union and Labcorp representatives. The panel will hear testimony from medical experts, lab workers, patients, and union representatives.
