“Tufts Medical Center CEO Dr. Michael Wagner still faces the same important civic choice as to whether he will follow the positive example of other healthcare employers by committing to a free and fair union election process for Tufts employees. If anything, this news underscores the uncertainty facing workers at Tufts Medical Center and the need for Tufts staff to have a real voice in the future of their hospital. The 1199SEIU members at Boston Medical Center and other area hospitals remain committed to helping workers at Tufts organize and win a voice to protect and raise standards for workers and patients in these uncertain times.”
