OHSU TO CHARGE LESS FOR BUS PASSES

On December 27, 2013, OHSU announced, on the Staff News blog, increased subsidies for the TriMet bus-pass program, resulting in reduced prices for the bus passes. However, the changes were limited to unclassified employees and employees represented by the Oregon Nurses Association. In the blog post, OHSU stated that it would be reaching out to the AFSCME leadership to initiate discussion on this issue, which they have done.
As with any negotiations, there are trade-offs. OHSU is now proposing that it will extend the TriMet subsidy increases to AFSCME-represented employees if Local 328 agrees to 15-minute timekeeping-rounding window. (Note: ONA did agree to the timekeeping-rounding and bus-pass changes during their recent negotiations).
