Providence health care strike reaches third week with no resolution

January 29, 2025 // The union added that there has been “zero movement” on critical issues like wages and health benefits where discussions have occurred. Providence said that the union’s proposals “are not financially sustainable.” The Renton, Washington-based health system added that its negotiators are working closely with federal mediators to negotiate with the union and that it expects “a lengthy walkout.” Providence largely refrained from negotiating before and during the early days of the strike, citing the need to prioritize stabilizing operations to keep hospitals running.
