We, the members of HPAE Local 5185, support our Union Bargaining Team in our fight for a fair contract for ALL. We are standing together for good pay, safe staffing, quality benefits and we are ready to do whatever it takes.

Good Pay: All staff, especially Professionals, Techs, and Service Workers, must immediately be brought to regionally competitive wages. Experience steps and longevity payments must be unfrozen to reward our experience and loyalty.

Safe Staffing: In the face of a national staffing crisis, Bayonne Medical Center must be a leader by expanding the contractual ratios to all staff in all departments and committing to accountability, including financial penalties to be paid as incentives to staff working short.

Quality Benefits: We need medical insurance that is widely accepted, with reasonable co-pays.

We are strong and united in our demands and will continue to stand together until they are met.
