Healthcare union elections: common questions

Which hospitals and healthcare employers unionized recently?

Of the employers hiring on this site, unions won 227 elections since Jan 2023 by the National Labor Relations Board's record, the latest: Providence, supplementary laboratory professionals medical laboratory scientists senior medical... in Spokane, WA (United Food and Commercial Workers Local 3000, affiliated with the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union, AFL-CIO), filed 25 Sep 2026: the union won, 44 to 9; Providence, professional employees in Oregon City, OR (Oregon Nurses Association), filed 11 Sep 2026: the union won, 55 to 10; MarinHealth, professional employees in Greenbrae, CA (National Union of Healthcare Workers (NUHW)), filed 24 Aug 2026: the union won, 49 to 7; SSM Health, a unit of workers in Madison, WI (SEIU Wisconsin), filed 21 Aug 2026: the union won, 27 to 14.

Which unions do nurses vote for?

Nurses voted a union in 91 of the elections won since Jan 2023 at these employers. The unions that won the most: Oregon Nurses Association (12 of 32 petitions won), National Union of Healthcare Workers (NUHW) (12 of 22 petitions won), Minnesota Nurses Association (10 of 20 petitions won), 1199SEIU United Healthcare Workers East (9 of 14 petitions won), Pacific Northwest Hospital Medicine Association, American Federation of Teachers Local 6552, AFL-CIO (6 of 6 petitions won) and Massachusetts Nurses Association (5 of 12 petitions won).

How does a union election at a hospital work?

Under the National Labor Relations Act, workers (or a union for them) file a petition with the National Labor Relations Board, backed by at least 30% of the unit's workers. The Board sets the unit (which job titles at which site) and holds a secret-ballot election; the union is certified when a majority of the votes cast choose it. Workers at public hospitals organize under their state's law instead, so their elections are not in the Board's record.

Which union elections are pending?
