SEIU Healthcare Minnesota members who work at Mayo Clinic's food service department in Rochester and Albert Lea are deciding whether to accept Mayo's contract proposal, according to an article on the Post Bulletin website.
Mayo's proposal to about 500 workers would bridge the multimillion dollar compensation gap through 2017 in exchange for SEIU withdrawing its formal complaints against Mayo that are currently pending with the National Labor Relations Board, the article said.
If Mayo's proposal is approved by food service workers, a second vote by SEIU's 2,000 union members in Rochester and Albert Lea is required due to tweaking of seniority language.
That vote is planned for next week and would set the stage for bargaining with Georgia-based Morrison later this month.
