NLRB to File Default Judgement on SRMC

Wednesday, June 03, 2009

REDDING - UPEC has been working with the National Labor Relations Board on a number of charges focused against the former owners of Shasta Regional Medical Center (SRMC) since October 30, 2008. In a letter issued by David Reeves, NLRB Counsel, dated May 29, 2009, Reeves advises his intent is to file a motion for default judgement against Hospital Partners of America and SRMC Management, Inc. (former SRMC operators). Apparently the former owners have not responded to communications from the NLRB in the matter of severance pay for the former workers represented by the United Public Employees of California Local 792 in Redding. “Our former members were ripped off and we will continue to fight for them and exhaust all legal means to see justice served”, said Business Manager Chris Darker.
