UC workers threaten open-ended strike, threatening campus dining and hospital services
TL;DR Summary
More than 40,000 UC workers across campuses and medical centers plan an open-ended strike Thursday over higher wages, lower healthcare costs, and housing affordability, potentially disrupting medical appointments and campus dining while UC hospitals stay open with contingency staffing. UC has offered up to 34% wage increases over three years plus a $2,000 ratification bonus and caps on premium increases, but the union says offers exclude many workers and housing remains unaddressed.
