A group of Techs posing after bargaining

As part of the 60,000+ member Alliance of Healthcare Unions, OFNHP members have been in national bargaining with Kaiser Permanente throughout the summer, fighting for safe staffing, fair wages, strong patient care standards, and a voice on the job. In these national sessions, Alliance unions — including OFNHP — have been negotiating over key economic issues like wage increases, staffing protections, and benefits.
