If health care had internal solidarity, to do this type of thing, there probably wouldn’t be a shortage of workers willing to do direct patient care.
Good for these guys. The reality is that when you stay with a job you rarely get that pay rise commensurate with skill as the years creep forward such that the newer generation can sometimes make more than you year one, after you’ve worked 10yrs. This is why unions are key. They prevent that behind the scenes BS from occurring. And push cost of living increases on your behalf. The percentage sounds like a lot but when you break it down it’s simply logical increase.
Yes, health workers should be unionized. But if we want more doctors, first we need more residency positions. The Boomer doctors retired before the Boomers stopped needing health care. We need to be training a lot more doctors.
