Labor Representative Cinamon Pitts helps SRMC RN Debra Belstad with her resume’

REDDING - As UPEC representatives continue their investigation in the SRMC firing, members are providing important information that will help the case that was filed last Thursday with the National Labor Relations Board. Business Manager Chris Darker is preparing case documents and evidence that will be reviewed next week in San Francisco. “Former SRMC CEO Phil Dionne all but admitted he purposely violated the union contracts with both UPEC Local 792 and the Service Employees International Union (SEIU)”, said Darker. SEIU filed their claim with the NLRB yesterday. Both International unions have been coordinating efforts this week aimed at SRMC and Prime Healthcare Services, Inc. UPEC believes both corporations have violated the WARN Act and National Labor Relations Act. “It’s not too late for PRIME to fix their problem with the unions but I don’t think they will anytime soon. It’s not like anyone will go to jail!”.
