BARAGAINING UNIT: RDH AND LAB PROS

Carla Zamora has been a Dental Hygienist for 24 years and for the past nine years has worked in private practice alongside Kaiser. Over her 24 years at Kaiser she has worked primarily at the Salmon Creek location.  She has been a shop steward for about the last eight years, right up until accepting the Contract Specialist’s job.  She has remained at Kaiser because we are a union house and she loves the people she works alongside. Carla knows it is mportant to hold management accountable, and for employees to have a voice in their work environment. She has always loved helping her colleagues navigate the complicated KP world, particularly new hires, who all need to know the importance of a strong union. Our strength is based on our member involvement, so that is where she focuses on building. Carla is also an outdoors lover, has a big family, and is a certifiable "foody."
