It’s time to VOTE for our union!
A secret-ballot election will run from May 31–June 7.
Where & when to vote
There will be in-person voting at all eight hospitals. Dates and times of day for each hospital will vary.
Check this table to find out when and where voting will occur at your primary work site.
We want to make sure every resident and fellow has a date, time, and place that will make it possible for them to vote.
Once you’ve made a voting plan, set a reminder on your phone and confirm it with our organizers—either tell whoever last talked to you, or use our contact form below!
Voting is secret ballot and conducted by the NLRB, a federal agency.
Salary. Family leave. Patient care funds. Work hour reform. Equipment. Housing. Meals. Childcare.
If you can name it, housestaff unions have won it.
They’ll fight dirty. Don’t let it get on your scrubs.
MGB’s crack team of union-busting lawyers are going to pull out all the stops in the last few weeks.
But sadly, they’re not housestaff. They neither know nor care what housestaff really need. No quantity of ghostwritten emails, feel-good videos, or pleading speeches by admins will fix that.
Federal law gives employees rights. Your supervisors cannot ask you how you are voting. They cannot threaten or promise future benefits depending on how you feel about the union.
These tactics are illegal. If they happen, let us know so we can report it to the proper authorities.
Would you trust UnitedHealth or Humana to tell you if Medicare for all is a good idea?
Your employer is also probably not the best source of info on unions.
