UPHI Update: March 19, 2025
Our UPHI and UTH bargaining teams met the management bargaining teams for the first time on Wednesday, March 19.
Together, we received training in interest-based bargaining (IBB) from Cassandra Braun, Director of Learning and Education for the Alliance of Healthcare Unions, and Andrea Kubo, Manager of 5 Ewa at Kaiser MOA. Both have extensive experience training in the Labor-Management Partnership (LMP).
IBB is the process we use to bargain contracts with KP. It’s meant to be a collaborative approach in which we explore interests to find mutually acceptable solutions to issues facing either side during contract negotiations.
