5 hours ago Thousands of Kaiser Permanente workers across California and Hawaii went on strike Monday, citing labor practices they find unfair. A news release from UNACH/UCHP, the union representing the workers, states it seeks a fair contract that includes more staffing, timely access to quality care and fair wages for frontline caregivers. The union has been bargaining with Kaiser since May 2025 and filed an unfair labor practice charge against the health care provider.
