A 10-day notice of another strike may be issued after Saturday, union leaders said; bargaining will resume Thursday
The Kaiser Permanente workers' strike continued into its third and final day on Friday, with the possibility of another strike still up in the air as both sides have yet to reach an agreement. Bargaining won't resume until Thursday, with another bargaining session scheduled for Friday. Meanwhile, another strike could be announced as soon as Sunday. The Coalition of Kaiser Permanente Unions said Friday that it may issue a strike notice after the current strike ends at 6 a.m. on Saturday.
Kaiser has said its hospitals, emergency departments and pharmacies would remain open during the strike, but some laboratories have closed, including labs in Bostonia, Carlsbad, Carmel Valley, El Cajon, Escondido, Rancho Bernardo, Rancho San Diego and Viewridge. The coalition has said they are striking over concerns about outsourcing and staffing levels that they say are unsafe and have caused high turnover and long patient wait times.
