IRONWOOD - Aspirus Health and the Michigan Nurses Association or MNA continue to be at odds over a contract proposal for Ironwood hospital nurses, who will vote on Aspirus’s latest offering on Wednesday. The MNA claims Aspirus’s offer lowers wages for nearly half of Ironwood nurses, removes experience-based pay, and ignores concerns about the OB unit closure. Aspirus, through Natalie Seaber, Michigan Regional President, defends its proposal as fair, market-rate, and vital for system-wide uniformity and financial stability, rejecting demands for mandatory union membership. Aspirus hopes for a quick resolution. The MNA says it does not share Aspirus’s positive view of bargaining, since it had to file a federal unfair labor practices charge against the group in order to get them back to the bargaining table.
