Calling all AFT 2121 Members- Put on your union t-shirt and join your labor siblings on the picket line in solidarity with striking Stationary Engineers Local 39 at Kaiser!
For over 8 weeks the essential workers of Stationary Engineers Local 39 have been on strike at Kaiser’s Northern California locations. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Kaiser Permanente has made $13 billion in profits. However, rather than spend that money on increased core staffing,
Kaiser has proposed to float engineers between facilities. This model would institutionalize the staffing shortages that have already hurt patients and workers. Rather than accept this takeaway, engineers have been on strike for nearly two months, and we must support them in their fight for better working conditions.
An injury to one is an injury to all. That’s why Thursday and Friday of this week several unions of essential health care workers will be holding strikes in solidarity with Local 39. SEIU UHW, OPEIU Local 29 and IFPTE Local 20 were ON STRIKE in solidarity today. Tomorrow, CNA and NUHW will join their fellow workers in Local 39 in a one-day sympathy strike.
Come join a picket and show Kaiser that the California labor movement stands with the essential workers of Local 39.
Friday, Nov 19th, 7am-10am and 2pm-5pm: Use this link to confirm the picket time you can join.
