Local 1445 UMass Memorial Medical Center Workers Ratify New Contract

On June 7, almost 1,000 members of UFCW Local 1445 who work in the service, maintenance, and technical departments at UMass Memorial Medical Center in Worcester, Mass., ratified a new contract.

The two-year contract includes wages increases for each year of the agreement, affordable health insurance, a pension plan, paid vacation, paid sick and personal days, and flexible leave of absences with and without pay. The new agreement also commits to not outsourcing almost 350 members in food service and housekeeping, and establishes two new bargaining units that will add 150 new members to UFCW Local 1445.
