Published pay, benefits, and contract history for the RN & professionals bargaining-unit context. Sources and gaps are included below.
Research reviewed .
21.5 percentage points
Measure: National scheduled percentage-point total
National 21.5-point sequence, about 23.3% compounded; local terms may add or qualify it.
Percentages cover the stated contract terms. Across-the-board totals, individual ranges, averages, and compounded growth describe different measures. Eligible steps and premiums may add to base increases.
The ratified union summary schedules 6.5% in March 2026, 6.5% in October 2026, 3% in August 2027, 2.5% in October 2027, and 3% in October 2028; no October 2025 retroactive payment is implied.
Reported tuition reimbursement rises from $3,000/year to $3,500 in 2026, $4,000 in 2027, $4,500 in 2028, and $5,000 in 2029. The payroll-rate education funding rises 40%; conflicting annual lump-funding summaries are not treated as definitive.
The linked signed clauses document qualified-dependent pension benefits, retiree-subsidy application, paid lactation, and a narrowly defined hearing-aid allowance effective January 2027. Eligibility and effective dates matter.
Agreed AI language recognizes human clinical judgment and workforce input. Staffing recommendations describe dashboards, tools, and escalation; staffing and budget outcomes are excluded from that implementation escalation process.
Individual signed TAs and agreed article text are part of the ratified package. The current complete Southern California local Blue Book remains member-gated; older local protections are historical evidence.
